Money is hard to buy, time is easy

Jane was taken aback, "Li Linliang, what are you crazy about!"

"I'm not crazy! All my classmates in the academy looked down on me and laughed at me as the son of a merchant! They laughed at me as an idiot, so I couldn't help but fight with them. Why was it that I was punished by my husband? Call me worthless! Only you will not look at me with that kind of eyes... Let me tell you, Li Linliang is not that kind of incompetent bastard! I will make great achievements for you to see!" Li Linliang shouted recklessly, these words He had held it in his heart for a while, and today he yelled out through his drunkenness, "I will definitely make you look good... I will... I will..." Before he finished speaking, he had already slid under the table. I'm really drunk.

"Are you drunk?" Duan Jian knelt down and patted Li Linliang. Seeing that he didn't respond, she called the servant from the Li family who was waiting outside the door to clean up the mess.

More than ten days passed after that gathering, Lian Lie finished his work, and indeed he sent an invitation to invite Li Linliang and Duan Jian to meet again.

Lian Lie and Duan Jian had similar backgrounds, they both had to shoulder the burdens of the family at a young age, Duan Jian couldn't help feeling a sense of sympathy for each other.

Similarly, Lian Lie had already inquired about Duan Jian's background from Li Linliang's big mouth. Although Li Linliang himself didn't know much about it, Duan Jian still knew about Duan Jian's parental death when he was young.Then I saw that Duan Jian was able to be alone since she was young.He must have suffered a lot, and he couldn't help but feel pity for Duan Jian, almost treating Duan Jian as a younger brother.

After the meal, Duan Jian took out a box of Yuyantang's newly made Peach Jade Blossom Cream, saying it was a gift for Mrs. Lian, and there were twelve boxes of the same beautifully packaged Peach Jade Cream for Lian Lie to give to the Escort For other relatives, of course he also concealed his identity as the big boss behind Yuyantang.Li Linliang didn't expect that Duan Jian would not forget to do business at this time, he felt admiration and frustration at the same time, because Duan Jian had said in advance that he was not allowed to tell about Yuyantang, so he could only hold back with a strange expression.

Lian Lie accepted it graciously, and said that he didn't have any suitable gifts around him to give back, and next time he came to Luocheng, he must invite them to taste the good wine brewed by the chief escort of the Lian Sheng Escort Bureau.

The author has something to say:

☆、Temporary farewell

In order to prove that he is not the second-generation ancestor who eats and drinks, Li Linliang won the job from his father to collect tea in other provinces with the manager of the tea shop, and set off with great ambitions.

On the other hand, Duan Jian is also very busy. The academic and political officials sent by the imperial court will arrive in Yancheng after this autumn. At that time, the scholars who have passed the children's examination from all counties in the province will take the college examination in Yancheng. If they don't leave early, I'm afraid At that time, there was no place to live.

Ah Hong is more nervous than Duan Jian, as a real son, he cannot accompany Duan Jian to Yancheng, which means that he will be separated from Duan Jian for a long time.

The night before his departure, Ah Hong was tossed about by Duan Jian all night. Although he didn't really enter the interior, Duan Jian had plenty of ways to make Ah Hong indulge in boundless desires, and follow his fingers to send out his Want to hear the voice.Ah Hong has never doubted Duan Jian's skillful flirting techniques, and it is this kind of wholehearted trust that makes Duan Jian treat each other tenderly from the bottom of his heart.

Having experienced a painful betrayal in the previous life, Ah Hong's unreserved trust has a fatal attraction to Duan Jian, and then he is attracted by Ah Hong himself, and then deeply obsessed.

In his previous life, he obviously preferred soft and charming women, but when he met Ah Hong who was always the same, he probably fell headfirst and never wanted to get up again.

The next day, Ah Hong endured the discomfort in his body and insisted on sending Duan Jian on the road.

Duan Jian firmly held Ah Hong's hand, and said softly, "Wait for me at home, and I'll come back after the results are released. If you have anything to do, go to Lin Dong or Li Linliang."

"Safe on the road."

"Master Lian is here, so don't worry about me."

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back."

The coachman raised his whip, and the carriage kicked and kicked on the road until he could no longer see him, then Ah Hong lowered his eyes and slowly turned back along the original road.

After the group left, Ah Hong was not idle. It didn't take long for the summer harvest to be harvested. He had to calculate how much he had harvested, and then record the income in the account book.

During the period, Li Linliang came once, and when he heard that Duan Jian had already left for the exam, he left without interest.Lian Lie also entrusted his bodyguard agency to bring a jar of wine to Duan Jian, and Ah Hong ordered the wine jar to be put away until Duan Jian returned.

Duan Jian only brought three people with him for the exam this time, Shutong Shimo, even a martial artist and a coachman.

After a few days, the group arrived in Yancheng smoothly.Duan Jian rented a small courtyard with a single family from Yazi, a local, as a foothold. After a little tidying up, he took the invitation card from Mr. Academy to visit Yancheng Academy.

After the dean of Yancheng Academy saw the greeting card, he couldn't help but look at Duan Jian a few more times, and even left Duan Jian for a light meal, and then praised and encouraged him, which made Duan Jian suspicious until he left. The academy was still thinking about what was going on.

Of course, he will not dream of the pie in the sky, and he will not show favor for no reason. If someone gives you a favor, you will definitely return it in the future. Only Ah Hong can truly let himself get whatever he wants without asking why and without complaint. One person, and it is enough for him to have Ah Hong alone.

Back in the small courtyard, Duan Jianjian stayed behind closed doors. He read and practiced calligraphy in the study every day. When he was tired from reading, he would go out of the courtyard and do some tricks with Master Lian. If it wasn't for the increasing yearning for Ah Hong, the days in Yancheng would be considered leisure and comfortable.

Finally, it was the day of the hospital examination. Duan Jian answered the examination papers for three days in a row, retested, and tried again and again. It was already five days later when she saw the sun again, and Shimo couldn't wait to greet her outside the examination room.Duan Jian didn't even bother to say anything, climbed into the carriage and lay down in the carriage, unable to get up.Fortunately, Ahong told Shimo many times before leaving, and prepared tea and snacks in the car in advance.Duan Jian drank a big pot of tea, ate some snacks, and fell asleep in the carriage.

When the results of the list came out, Duan Jian was on the list, ranked second and No.3.The students who lived nearby all congratulated Duan Jian. Duan Jian only had the ease of completing the task, and did not have the joy of high school. He was really relieved after visiting the people in Yancheng and ordered to set off. go home.

He went back to Luocheng non-stop, but couldn't relax immediately. Duan Jian rested at home all night, and went to visit her teacher with a gift the next day.

The husband received the news a few days ago, and he is quite satisfied with the results of Duan Jian, a proud student.Now Duan Jian, as a granary student in Luocheng, already has the qualifications to go to Beijing for the exam, but Duan Jian said that she is still young and still has many shortcomings. If she wants to prepare for a few more years, she needs the guidance of her mentor.The husband thought that he was only fifteen years old this year, so he was indeed a little young, so he stopped mentioning this matter.

As soon as Duan Jian changed the topic to the teacher appreciation banquet the day after tomorrow, the husband readily agreed to go after a few excuses, but finally said that Duan Jian should remember to dress decently that day.The teacher and the student chatted some gossip again, and the teacher waved him out with a wave of his sleeve.

Soaking comfortably in the large tub big enough to accommodate two people, Duan Jian opened her chest to enjoy Ah Hong's service.Ahong wiped his body with a damp soft cloth. After a few months, Duan Jian seems to have grown a lot taller. The shoulders and arms exposed on the water are covered with a layer of firm muscles, and they are no longer as soft as they were when they were young. Cotton, as for the body below the water surface...

With a splash of water, Duan Jian stood up from the water, the young man's vigorous arms hugged Ah Hong's waist, his warm breath fell on Ah Hong's shoulders, and the wet clothes were wet and stuck to the two of them.

"Did you miss me these days when I was away?" Duan Jian said while groping along Ah Hong's back with his palm.

His clothes were pulled open, revealing his white chest, wet lips fell to his chest, covering the dark red protrusions, and asked vaguely, "Did you miss me here?"

Ah Hong choked for breath, his heart beat violently, and it took him a long time to utter a single word: "I want to..."

"What about here?" Duan Jian's fingers had already parted the round mounds, and she slid there familiarly, "Did you miss me here?"

Those who could not hear the answer were determined not to let the other party go, pressing and twitching their fingers at the entrance, but refused to break in.

Ah Hong's legs had been weak for a long time, if it weren't for Duan Jian's support, he might not be able to stand up.

"Did you miss me? Tell me quickly, or I will never let you go!" Duan Jian slowly squeezed Ah Hong's weak point with the other hand.

"No..." Ah Hong finally couldn't help but begged for mercy, and clasped the boy's back with both hands, "I... miss you... miss you..."

Before the words finished, Duan Jian stepped out of the bathtub, stretched out his arms to hug Ah Hong, and strode into the room. He endured it for almost three years, and he had endured it for a long time, so he decided not to let Ah Hong go. , Now let's deal with the people first.

The world was spinning for a while, and when Ah Hong realized it, he was already lying on the bed, and Duan Jian pressed down, countless eager kisses fell on his bare chest, winding all the way down, and at the same time, a hot and firm object was pressed against his chest The roots of the thighs are about to move.

He has no time to think, the storm-like passion envelops him and he cannot escape, he is already vaguely aware of the upcoming things, and he is looking forward to it faintly in his heart.

Duan Jian was also eager, looking for the entrance while kissing, like every kid who met his sweetheart for the first time, he hadn't experienced this kind of excitement and nervousness for a long time.But the adult soul obviously underestimated the young body, and before he could even enter the door, he threw away his helmet and armor because he was too excited.

Ahong closed his eyes tightly and waited for a long time, until there was a sudden feeling of wetness between his legs, he couldn't help but open his eyes, and what he saw was Duan Jian's dejected look, and a piece of white turbid liquid that was slowly condensing down on his legs. Where can I still not understand what happened, the atmosphere was momentarily frozen.

The eerie silence lasted for a while, and Ah Hong finally spoke to comfort him: "Brother...the journey must be exhausting...it's better to rest earlier...ah!"

An annoyed person directly pulled the quilt to cover his upper body, and then his lower body was brought into a warm and humid place, which made Ah Hong struggle continuously, but Duan Jian directly pressed against his body, preventing him from moving.

Being invisible makes Ah Hong much more sensitive than before. Although Duan Jian bumped his teeth a few times and made him flinch a few times due to his lack of proficiency, it still leaked out quickly between his lips and tongue.

After cleaning each other hastily, Duan Jian didn't let him turn over, and hugged him directly from behind, wrapping his arms tightly around his waist and fell asleep.

The author has something to say: _(:з」∠)_ After posting this chapter, there is still half of the manuscript left, so sad... Then why don't you see me, see me, see me, me...

Duan Jian, who was struggling, still failed to complete the home run, and died before the start, please allow me to be sad.

☆, distiller's yeast

The teacher appreciation banquet was scheduled to be held in the superior private room of Zuixianju, Duan Jian followed the teacher's instructions, changed into decent new clothes, and waited in advance.

Because he didn't want to entertain too many irrelevant people, Duan Jian only invited a few teachers who taught him and the dean of the academy.Inviting the dean of the academy was just a necessary step out of etiquette, Duan Jian had no hope at all, otherwise there were so many students who won the exam, and the banquets would be lined up for at least a month.He thought he had an ordinary family background, and although he had some money, he didn't have enough face to impress the dean.Unexpectedly, Mr. Dean was really invited.

Everyone entered the table, the dean sat at the head, the gentlemen sat on both sides in turn, and Duan Jian sat at the head. During the meeting, the dean and the gentlemen encouraged Duan Jian as usual, feeling that the future of young people today is limitless, and Duan Jian was modest at the right time A few words, and then just a few flattering, talking and laughing at each other, the atmosphere is harmonious, except that Mr. Dean seems to inadvertently look at Duan Jian a few times, his critical eyes are like countless small thorns, Duan Jian felt a chill down her spine.

After the banquet was over and the gentlemen were being sent off, Duan Jian realized that her clothes were almost soaked. It was really not easy to eat such a meal.

This year's autumn is over, and the next one will be opened in three years.Although Ah Hong tentatively tried to persuade him to continue studying, Duan Jian originally planned that it would be more convenient for him to do things in the future as long as he was a student, and he had no intention of developing an official career.Ah Hong's anxious heart finally settled down. He only hoped to stay in Luocheng with Duan Jian for the rest of his life. If Duan Jian really decided to take part in the scientific examination, he had to go to Longjing. I would like to take another step into Longjing, but I also don't want to be separated from Duan Jian.

He is a real son, and he is still burdened with a secret that can never be mentioned. He is destined to die of old age in Luocheng all his life, but Duan Jian is a fledgling bird. Sooner or later, he will soar up to a height that he will never be able to reach.He can only hurry before this day comes, day after day, use his tenderness and love to make a thin rope, and slowly wrap him tightly round and round until it becomes an inextricable shackle .

But not yet, the shackles are not heavy enough, and the ropes are not ready yet.

Duan Jian must have never thought that the person who has been with him for more than ten years is actually not as gentle and harmless as he appears. He has never admitted his identity as a real son, but he is willing to put down his body for Duan Jian, lying under him and playing with him at will. It's just one of the means to make Duan Jian unable to leave her.

If possible, he hopes to break the opponent's wings, cut off his sharp claws, and blindfold him so that he can never fly!

The days seem to pass peacefully, the weather turns hot and cold, and in the blink of an eye another spring has arrived.

The white porcelain jar Lian Lie sent was not big. The lid with a large mouth was covered with dozens of layers of oil paper to seal it, and it was tightly wrapped several times with a hemp rope as thick as a little finger. The room is full of fragrance.

"It smells so strong, the gift from A Lie is really good." Duan Jian took a sip of the aroma and praised.

Last winter, Ah Hong suddenly said that he wanted to learn how to make wine.The government prohibits private brewing and selling of wine, and accordingly, distiller's yeast and the like are also strictly managed.Ah Hong tried to do it himself, but a basket of good rice was spoiled. During that time, there was a sour smell everywhere in the house.Originally, Ah Hong was not a stubborn person, but this time he said that he wanted to make wine. Duan Jian had no choice but to send a letter to A Lie, asking him to send altar of wine, must be good.

After the beginning of spring, Lian Lie really asked someone to deliver a jar of high-quality wine music. The attached letter said that his mother liked the box of peach jade flower ointment he gave last time, and asked him to buy a few more boxes to send back. Give the family a few aunts, while he waits to drink the good wine brewed by Ah Hong.

After Ah Hong got the wine koji, he tried to make a few more jars of wine, but he didn't take them out to torture Duan Jian, and he didn't mention it again.Duan Jian guessed that Ah Hong had failed again, and he was thin-skinned and refused to admit it, but as long as he stopped forcing himself to try those weird "wine", it would be nothing to waste some food.As for the jar of wine song that Lian Lie specially gave, at worst, next time Lian Lie came over, he would go to the tavern outside to buy more jars of good wine in private to make up for it.

This morning, Duan Jian went out to socialize with business friends.

In more than four years, the scale of Yuyantang in Luocheng has expanded several times. Duan Jian slowly appeared in front of everyone from behind the scenes, and began to be the boss of Duan seriously. Because of lack of experience and young age, people tend to look down upon her. He has been tricked by outsiders, made wrong decisions, or missed good opportunities due to indecision, but he acted cautiously, and he did not hurt the root cause. After accumulating some experience, Yuyantang has been developed to its current scale. After becoming the boss of the previous stage, all kinds of entertainment will naturally follow.

All the servants in the kitchen were sent out by Ah Hong, and now he is the only one.

Ah Hong took out a box from the back of the cabinet. The white porcelain jar was still bright and white. He slowly untied the hemp rope, gently lifted the lid, took out a small piece of distiller's yeast from the jar, and sealed the jar as it was. , back to the original place.

Squeeze the koji in the bowl into powder, add warm water, mix well, and then drink it slowly one mouthful at a time. Every time after getting married with Duan Jianhuan, Ah Hong would drink a bowl of this thing the next day.

Sometimes Duan Jian would drag him to sleep after just wiping his body a few times after finishing. He could only clean it up carefully when he woke up the next day in the shower. Just to be on the safe side, he would drink an extra bowl, just to Prevent yourself from becoming pregnant.Private abortion was strictly prohibited at that time, and no one in the clinic dared to sell contraceptive prescriptions. There were secret recipes for infertility in brothels and other places, but even if you got the secret recipes, you couldn’t buy the medicinal materials you needed, and if you were a little careless, you would be injured. As for the midwives who do these businesses in private, he can't and dare not ask, because this matter must be completely hidden from Duan Jian.

Speaking of which, he had seen this secret method of contraception by accident when he was a child, and he didn't expect it to come in handy now.Grandfather praised him for being young but with a long-term memory, and he would definitely pass on the mantle in the future, so he casually browsed through the various classics on the bookshelf, but he didn't know how his grandfather would feel if he knew that his most beloved grandson had been reduced to be someone else's child. .

Even if this other person is Duan Jian... the unwillingness in her heart will not wear away with time.

Putting down the empty bowl, Ah Hong asked the servants outside to clean it up, and then prepared hot water for bathing and delivered it to his room.

It was not Luo Cheng's colleague who made an appointment with Duan Jian today, but Luo Cheng's colleague was just an introduction.

Yuyantang, which was launched four years ago, has grown from an unknown small shop to a well-known firm in Luocheng in a short period of time. It no longer only sells rouge and gouache, but gradually expands to embroider clothes, sachets, jewelry and other aspects.

The rapid development of Yuyantang is impressive, and colleagues have speculated about who the boss behind the scenes is, but the shopkeeper of Yuyantang is very strict and never reveals any rumors.It wasn't until Duan Jian took the initiative to show up that everyone knew that the mysterious owner of Yuyantang turned out to be a talented young man.

It’s not that no one has ever thought of suppressing Yuyantang, but the young master of the Li family in Luocheng let it go, saying that if you can’t get along with Yuyantang, you can’t get along with the Li family. When these words come out, it is undoubtedly like a huge rock that stirs up in the Luocheng commercial firm. Thousands of waves, everyone speculated about the relationship between Yuyantang and the Li family, and when the new store of Yuyantang opened, Lian Lie came to congratulate him in person.There is no businessman who does not have a good relationship with the Escort, and of course he recognizes that he is the young head of the Lian Sheng Escort.With Li Linliang and Lian Lie joining forces to exert pressure, no one dared to attack Yuyantang again.

If you can't do anything, you can only cooperate. No one will have trouble with money, and Duan Jian is no exception.What they are going to talk about this time is to open a branch of Yuyantang in Longjing. In comparison, Yuyantang can't even compare to a little finger.

Although Mu's proposed cooperation is good, the conditions are relatively harsh, so Duan Jian will naturally not let the other party lead him away.Seeing that Duan Jian was young, the manager sent by the Mu family to negotiate did not pay attention to him at first, but after several confrontations, he had to admit that he had underestimated the other party.

In the end, the two parties could not reach a consensus on some key points, so the steward said that he had to go back and consult the Patriarch for instructions before making a decision.Duan Jian readily agreed, and she was not in a hurry to buy or sell. She immediately asked the waiter in the shop to withdraw the cold tea, replaced it with a new table of wine and dishes, and exchanged glasses with the other party to toast.

The author has something to say:

☆, Flying Yanfu

Duan Jian was not in a hurry to go home after seeing off the manager of Mu's Commercial Firm, and took Shimo to Yuyan Hall.

The master perfumer from Longjing resigned from the position of shopkeeper after the business was on the right track, and focused on mixing various new fragrances. Duan Jian hired another experienced old shopkeeper to manage Yuyantang.

Yuyantang's ledgers are separate from the Duan family's other income and expenditure ledgers. After checking this month's accounts, the shopkeeper showed Duan Jian the new products that had just arrived a month ago.

Among the new designs sent by the cooperative gold shop, there is a hairpin of osmanthus flower, which is elegant and generous. Duan Jian fell in love with it at a glance, and ordered the shopkeeper to send one to home after it was finished. Bring back the new material for making summer clothes.

After everything was done, Duan Jian wanted to check the situation in the store, so she didn't go out from the backyard as usual.After passing the front hall, there are many customers in the store at this time, gathering in twos and threes to choose products.Except for the guys who greeted the guests, there were only two men, Duan Jian and Shimo.Duan Jian was caught in a group of women and girls, her nose was filled with the rich scent of powder, she almost couldn't hold back her sneeze, so she strode out quickly.

Just a few steps out of the store, Duan Jian was stopped by a young man dressed as a book boy at the corner, and the young man blushed slightly, and said falteringly: "This son... my family, my young master fell in love with him at first sight, and wanted to Invite your son to go over and talk! My young master is in the tea house opposite!"

Duan Jian crossed her arms and looked at the other party in a state of embarrassment, then said: "Tell your lady, if a man and a woman are not intimate, this story can be avoided."

"Ah? You, how did you know?" The maid dressed as a book boy was taken aback.

Sighing, Duan Jian raised her hand to slap her, pointed to her ear and said, "Your earlobes have pierced marks, and next time you want to pretend to be a man, don't sprinkle so much powder on your body. It makes sense. Come on, don't just stand there in a daze, hurry up and persuade your young lady to go home."

On the way back, Shimo asked foolishly: "Master, you are amazing! But how do you know that her master is also a young lady?"

"Only a lady who has watched too many dramas about gifted scholars and beauties will come up with silly tricks of pretending to be a man. This kind of woman is the most troublesome, remember to walk around when you meet her in the future, do you hear me?"

"Oh! What the young master said is true!"

On the other side, in the teahouse, Pei Yiyi repeatedly asked the maid: "Duan Jian, did he really say that?"

"Yes, Miss." The servant girl looked bitter, "I was discovered before I could say anything, what should I do now, Miss?"

Pei Yiyi clenched the fan tightly in her hand. She couldn't let go of Duan Jian when she ran into Duan Jian on the boat a year ago. After mentioning it to her mother, her mother told her father to secretly investigate Duan Jian's behavior.

Originally, Pei Yiyi was happy for a while when she heard that Duan Jian had won the prize of Linsheng.Father Pei also admired Duan Jian quite a lot. Pei Yiyi was his only daughter, and in the future she would definitely recruit a son-in-law to inherit the family business. Duan Jian's parents died. Satisfied, her daughter marrying him is not a disgrace to her identity.

Dean Pei has already planned to support Duan Jian more in the future, as long as Duan Jian has studied hard in high school for three years, he can hint him to come to propose marriage.Unexpectedly, Duan Jian opened a shop and started a business as soon as she turned around, from a scholar to a lowly businessman with a smell of copper.Father Pei was so angry that Duan Jian didn't know how to flatter her, and said that Pei's family was a scholarly family, so she definitely wouldn't deal with merchants, and told her to stop thinking that she shouldn't have.

Pei Yiyi herself was also angry and anxious, but as a woman, there was nothing she could do.Seeing that the time dragged on day by day, Duan Jian's business was getting bigger and bigger, and she was getting older and older. If she didn't marry again, she wouldn't be able to get married.

Not long ago, Pei Yiyi heard that her father planned to recruit her husband and son-in-law, and felt that she could no longer wait for Duan Jian to take the initiative.Without further ado, today she managed to persuade her mother to let her go out. She waited outside Yuyan Hall for a long time, but she never thought that Duan Jian was so unfeeling that she refused to meet her. How could she not resent or hate.

If Duan Jian finds out, she will definitely be wronged.How did he know when he was in the eyes of the dean of the academy, and he didn't know that there were people who had placed high hopes on him, but were completely disappointed in him now.

This day's incident was originally just a small matter that was not worth paying attention to, but unexpectedly it would cause a big disturbance in the future, and she was simply inexplicably flying into disaster. Afterwards, Duan Jian could only sigh like this.

Liji tea shop in Luocheng had a double happiness today. The two real sons got married on the same day, and they married the twin sons of Zengji Buzhuang, who were also merchants. Brothers changed into sisters-in-law. All the way from the door of the house to the door of the husband's house, it's just to marry the real son, this battle can catch up with the marriage of the daughter, the Li family's such a big deal caused an uproar in the whole city.

Although Li Linxuan and Li Linxin were real sons, they were able to be married as regular wives by Ming Media. This dowry was also one of the reasons.

As the eldest brother, Li Linliang was busy all day, until he saw his two younger brothers being sent to the bridal chamber with his own eyes. Although he didn't hide and cry at home like his father did, he felt a little empty in his heart.The two little tails who had been arguing behind her since she was a child grew up to the age of marriage in the blink of an eye, and they will no longer belong to her family.

The firecrackers in front of Li's house blared all day, and the next day, before the smell of sulfur dissipated, Li Linliang ran out of the house and dragged Duan Jian out for a drink.

Depressed and disappointed people drank one cup after another, until Duan Jian couldn't stand it anymore, "It's not that you marry your daughter, why drink like this!"

"You don't understand!" Li Linliang said in a muffled voice, "The treasures that have been guarded for more than ten years are snatched away by outsiders, and two of them are snatched away at once. Can you understand this feeling?"

"No, it's not like you don't know that I'm the only child."

"So now when I see those two boys from the Zeng family, I feel itchy and want to hit them."

"I advise you to think twice before you start. If your fist really falls, your younger brothers should sever ties with you."

"Hey, I knew that the person who gets married is the water that gets thrown out." Li Linliang sighed, holding his wine glass, and said viciously, "If the Zeng family dares to let my brothers down, I'll let them hang out in Luocheng. Don't go down!"

Duan Jian didn't take Li Linliang's ruthless words seriously, but reminded him of one thing, and asked after taking a sip of wine, "Since this is the case, are your family planning to cooperate with Zeng's cloth shop?"

"My father has this plan, but I'm not very clear about the specifics. Could it be that you want to..."

Duan Jian didn't feel any embarrassment at all, and said bluntly: "In the future, the price of Yuyantang's purchases from Zeng's family will be reduced by [-]%."

"[-]%? You think too beautifully! Impossible, half a point is about the same."

"Anyway, the Zeng family will become your family sooner or later, and your family will become your own sooner or later. Don't forget that Yuyantang also has your shares. The more you earn, the more dividends you will get. "

"That's not mine yet!" Li Linliang shook his head, "No, I can't make the decision, I have to ask my father to agree."

Duan Jian didn't force her, and said, "Okay, please help me say something nice in front of your father, and I'll treat Mr. Li to a light meal some other day."

Li Linliang said vigilantly: "What do you want? Do you also want to propose marriage to my father? My father just got married and his two sons are sad, let alone my remaining two younger brothers, one is ten years old and the other is eight years old. , I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible."

The back of Duan Jian's head hurt suddenly, she just wanted to smash the jug in front of Li Linliang's face, gritted her teeth and said: "You think too far, I just want to ask your father to talk about the cloth village. If you don't What an accident, Yuyantang will be able to open another branch in Longjing this year."

"Oh, you should have said it earlier." Li Linliang patted his chest and said, "When I think of you calling me brother-in-law, I feel a chill all over my body."

Duan Jian seriously thought about how to destroy Li Linliang to make sure nothing happened if she couldn't help but accidentally beat Li Linliang to death.

The author has something to say: expressing wrong feelings is really a sad thing =. =

☆, Mu's Firm

Duan Jian omitted the details, and gave a rough overview of the plan to cooperate with Mu's Firm.

Li Linliang only cares about investment and dividends. Duan Jian is worried about how Yuyantang will operate. After listening to it, she rubbed her chin and said: "It is a good thing to cooperate with Mu's Firm. With the support of Mu's Firm, Yuyantang will be established in Longjing It is not difficult to gain a firm foothold, but I heard that Mu's family has not been very peaceful recently."

Anyway, after discussing the business, Li Linliang began to gossip enthusiastically.

"Mu's has been the leader of the Northern Commercial Bank for more than a hundred years. The owner of this generation married a lady from a ruined official family as his wife and gave birth to a son. Later, for the benefit of the business, he married the daughter of another big family. You should have heard that North Mu and South Chen, the Chen family refuses to let their daughter marry and become a child. The daughter married in as an ordinary wife, but there was a condition that the daughter of the Chen family could only be a real son when she gave birth to a son. Although the young lady's family has fallen, after all, it is an official family and the official wife of the Ming media. The Mu family and the Chen family finally agreed. Yes. The daughter of the Chen family really gave birth to a son in the second year after she married in. According to the contract, she had to be sent as a real son. But the Chen family was secretly not convinced, and they still cultivated this son according to the standard of male heirs. Later, the official family Miss is dead, and Mrs. Chen is dominant, but now the Mu family has two young masters, and the Mu family is not peaceful because these two young masters are seizing power."

"The Mu family is willing to let a real son be the heir?"

"Businessmen, I can understand. They are all profitless. They are not as particular as you scholars. The head of the Mu family has his own opinions. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to marry a common wife. Back then, he still paid for this matter. He has been scolded by some old pedants for several years! I heard that the Shizi young master is very capable, and his methods are much better than his brother. If he hadn't been restricted as a Shizi, he would have been established as the next Patriarch long ago. He is about the same age as me, but I am far behind him, my father always said that if I am half as capable as someone else, he can safely hand over the tea shop to me and just take care of his life." After that, Li Linliang He sighed heavily.

After returning home at night, Duan Jian told Ah Hong about the Mu family, and then said: "If Ah Hong is a man, you must be no worse than him."

Ah Hong said, "Why did my brother suddenly talk about me?"

He stretched out his arms to hug Ah Hong, and Duan Jian pressed his face against Ah Hong's chest. He liked to hug each other like this since some time ago, as if no matter how many worries he had, he would settle down with his steady heartbeat.

"Ah Hong... Have you ever been unwilling? I know you didn't come here voluntarily. If one day you could leave, where would you want to go?" This sentence has haunted Duan Jian for more than ten years. Today Finally got up the courage to ask.

Ah Hong stretched out his hand to touch Duan Jian's face, and after thinking for a while, he said, "You will know what happened later. The only thing that can be guaranteed is that I will go wherever my brother goes." As he spoke, his palm was held by the other party Burn a kiss.

Duan Jian raised her head and solemnly promised, "Ah Hong, I will work hard to earn money to support my family, and I won't make you suffer any more."

"Well, I believe you." Ah Hong smiled softly, and took the initiative to lean over and kiss each other.

Duan Jian was not in a hurry as there was no news from Mu's Firm, as he had other matters to deal with right now.

I heard that the Fan family in the east of the city brought in a batch of spices, and they were all destroyed in the rainstorm on the road. This time, they might even have to pay for their ancestral property, so they were anxious to find someone to guarantee the debt.The Fan family is an old shop that has been around for decades, but its business is just getting through, and the location is so-so. Daxianghang doesn't care about small profits, and the small shop can't handle so much, so it's just right for Yuyantang.Duan Jian intends to cooperate with the Fan family. He originally wanted to buy the remaining spices from the Fan family at a low price. He had already negotiated the terms and waited for the two parties to sign a contract. The oral agreement is void.

The Fan family backed down, but Duan Jian had nothing to do with the other party. After all, he only had a verbal agreement with the boss of the Fan family, which was insignificant.Moreover, although Yuyantang has developed rapidly, the time is too short and the foundation is still weak, so it cannot compete with those large commercial firms with strong financial resources.Duan Jian knew in her heart that it was despicable for the Fan family to turn back on their promises, and his behavior of taking advantage of others' dangers was not very noble, in the end it was just for the same benefit.

After waiting for a few days, Li Linliang suddenly asked Duan Jian to meet at Xiwazi teahouse.

As the name suggests, Xiwazi Teahouse is located on the edge of Xiwazi. There are storytellers, singers, and jugglers in Wazi. They don't stop from morning to night, attracting countless people to come here for fun.The lobby on the first floor is full of tea guests around the middle table, and the second floor is an independent private room. You can clearly see the situation below from the fence. If you don’t want to be peeped, you can block the outside view by putting down the curtain , but unable to block the sound, it is not a good place to talk, so Duan Jian rarely comes here
