My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 160
[Chapter 160: I am two and you are eight (third update)]
Jing Zhe looked up at the sky and saw that his neck was a little stiff, so Jing Zhe lowered his head.
He sighed, as if he had lost something, and felt a little uncomfortable.
He didn’t forget to mutter: “This silly fairy girl, can’t even say goodbye? No need for emotion.”
Then he looked into the distance and said softly.
“Goodbye, see you next time.”
He took out the azure token again. On the back of the word “Qing” was the word “秋”. He saw it just now. Even a fool could tell that this was not a unified token. , but a unique token that belongs to Qingqiu.
I just saw how naive Qing Qiu looked and wanted to tease her inexplicably, but I didn’t expect that she was so thin-skinned and wouldn’t tease her at all. She didn’t give the emotional Jing Zhe a chance to express his parting emotions.
But what she said was right. If we were destined to meet, we would meet each other. Even if we took one of her signs, we would inevitably have the opportunity to meet each other in the future, right?
Jing Zhe stuffed the token into his clothes and put it away. It was getting late, so he didn’t stop and walked back.
As for the unexpected situation when he was intercepted by Wu De just now, it did not affect his mood, but he was a little happy.
Originally, he still regretted that he only fined Wu Yong this small amount of money (for a corrupt magistrate in the capital, two thousand taels of silver was really not much). It was too easy for him, and he was unwilling to do so.
But the person who takes it is short-handed, no matter how much it is, he takes it, and he also promised Wu Yong to turn over the story. If he makes some fuss about this matter, it will indeed be a bit unscrupulous.
And Wu De appeared at this moment, which was even more timely than the rain in time, so he had a reason to give Wu Yong a fatal blow!
Magistrate Wu, you can’t blame me for this, I can only blame you, your unlucky son!
…
Jing Zhe returned to Zhang’s house happily and found that the lights in Zhang’s yard were brightly lit at this time. They were not working overtime to make spirits, but waiting for him.
In fact, when Hanhan came back alone, Zhang Xuexian breathed a sigh of relief, especially after hearing Hanhan say that Jing Zhe asked him to come back first, he felt even more confident.
After all, he was someone who could do royal business with Emperor An. How much of a threat could a small prefecture son pose to him?
However, his wife and daughter were extremely worried and did not listen to his advice. They just stood in the yard and stared at the door eagerly, waiting for Jing Zhe to come back.
When Jing Zhe entered the door, the faces of the two women standing next to Zhang Xuexian changed from worry to joy, and they immediately greeted him. After just “hugging him on the left and on the right”, the room around him immediately became empty.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xuexian’s nose felt a little sore.
It’s understandable that his daughter ran away, but why did his wife also run away with her?
She looked at Jing Zhe with very envious eyes…
“A Kun, are you okay?”
Mrs. Zhang came to Jing Zhe and looked up and down, left and right for a moment.
“Auntie, does it look like something is wrong with me?”
Jing Zhe smiled and turned around after speaking.
“I’ve told you a long time ago that Akunji is the prime minister of heaven and Hanhan has said it when he came back. How could something happen to him?”
Zhang Xue came up and asked again: “Have you eaten?”
“No, I took care of it at noon. I was in a hurry at night and forgot to eat. It’s a pity when I think about it. After all, the food in the yamen is quite good!”
“…”
After hearing what he said, everyone was speechless.
Others would have to peel off their skin when entering the Yamen, but he was still thinking about the food inside!
“In that case, let’s go in quickly! Your aunt has prepared the food a long time ago. If you don’t eat it, it will get cold!”
With Zhang Xuexian’s experience in doing business for so long, he had a lot to ask at this time, but because of Mrs. Zhang’s With Zhang Xiaoyu and Zhang Xiaoyu both present, he didn’t say much, but let Jing Zhe into the house in the name of eating.
…
After eating, everyone went back to their respective houses.
Because he slept all afternoon in the yamen, Jing Zhe was in high spirits. After entering the room, he placed several signs he had collected on the table.
The black one was given by Liu Jinghong, the fifth sister, the gold one was given by An Dishang, and the azure one was given by Qingqiu. For a show-off lover, these brands are simply sharp tools.
Especially today, I tried the power of the gold medal. The moment I took it out, I almost scared Wu Yong out of courage. He was forced to pay him two thousand taels of silver. He couldn’t put it down for these brands.
“Dang!”
There was a knock on the door outside. Jing Zhe asked while packing up the sign, “Who is it?”
“Akun, it’s me!”
Zhang Xuexian’s voice came from outside.
Jing Zhe went over to open the door and said with a smile, “Uncle, you’re here just in time. I want to find you too!”
“Oh? What does Akun want from me?”
Jing Zhe fumbled in his clothes and took out the blackmail he had just received from Wu Yong. The two thousand taels of silver notes came and were handed over.
“Uncle, because we mistakenly sealed the liquor today and delayed our business, Magistrate Wu felt very sorry, so he gave us two thousand taels of silver notes as compensation. Uncle, please take it!”
Jing Zhe didn’t want it, and Zhang Xuexian didn’t dare to ask for it.
As a native of Jingzhou, he knew Wu Yong’s behavior very well. He regarded wealth as his life. Even ordinary people wanted to loot several layers. How could he take the initiative to compensate?
It can only mean that Jing Zhe used the gold medal, but Wu Yong was very afraid of this and wanted to spend money to eliminate the disaster.
Smiling and waving his hand, “Akun, we haven’t opened yet, where’s the loss? I’m afraid Magistrate Wu gave this money to you alone!”
Jing Zhe shook his head: “Uncle, don’t be afraid. If I guessed correctly, Wu Yong was also from Su Xinping. The Zhang family wine shop was so prosperous at first, but it was framed by Su Xinping. The money lost was more than two thousand taels of silver, right?
And most of this money went into their pockets, which originally belonged to his uncle. , Isn’t it right for him to come back? Uncle, take it, just in time to pay off the balance you owed others!”
In order to deal with Su Xinping’s fake orders, Zhang Xuexian gave a lot of food and wine on credit. However, some people were his old friends and were not in a hurry to pay him back.
But not paying back the money he owed was always a worry. Jing Zhe heard Zhang Xiaoyu say it in private, so he thought of giving him the money.
Zhang Xue hesitated for a moment, then finally made up his mind and reached out to take the bank note.
But his expression became solemn and he said sternly: “Akun, uncle has thought about it for a long time. If I continue to open Zhangjia Winery, I am afraid that I will not be able to become nationally famous in my lifetime. But if I want to sell spirits, I want to It’s very simple!
And whether it’s the manufacturing of spirits or the marketing methods, or even turning spirits into a royal business, it’s all your own doing. My uncle feels really bad about it!”
“Then what my uncle means is…”
“You bought shares in the Zhang family. Let’s go to the winery!”
Zhang Xuexian said excitedly: “It was your idea to make the spirits. I just asked someone to help with the processing. My nephew will buy a stake in the Zhangjia Winery. Let’s split the account between 20 and 80! , okay?”
But Jing Zhe did not agree and shook his head with a smile.
