My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 925

[Chapter 899 Chapter 910 Enthusiastic Citizen Shopkeeper Hu]

Shopkeeper Hu was hesitating when a servant came down from upstairs and whispered a few words in his ear.

After Shopkeeper Hu heard this, he called the bald waiter over. After saying a few words to him, the bald waiter hesitated and ran away.

It turned out that Prince Yu witnessed the whole process upstairs. Although he felt unhappy, the money lost was not his. He didn’t want Shopkeeper Hu to delay his good deeds, so he asked Shopkeeper Hu to pay quickly.

He also promised that even if Jing Zhe took the money, he would not be able to leave Ruzhou City. As long as he was in the city, the money would not be lost!

At this point, shopkeeper Hu also understood that Jing Zhe was able to guess all the lantern riddles not because the bald waiter was in cahoots with him, but because of his ability!

After hunting eagles for so many years, I unexpectedly got pecked in the eye by an eagle.

Shopkeeper Hu shook his head and smiled bitterly, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes: Just wait, I will spit out this money sooner or later, and then it will not just be as simple as spitting it out!

After a while, the bald waiter came over carrying a small iron box with a delicate silver lock hanging on it.

Shopkeeper Hu took out the key and opened the lock, took out all the silver notes inside and counted them. Then he took out the 2,500 taels of silver notes that the bald waiter had just given him, and handed them to Jing Zhe. He walked over and said: “You count, twelve thousand five hundred taels!”

Jing Zhe saw all his actions, especially the last two thousand five hundred taels he had just given away, indicating that shopkeeper Hu had no more money. With the extra money, these more than 10,000 taels of silver notes can be regarded as all the savings of Juxian Tower!

Haha, this is the effect I want!

After Jing Zhe finished counting, he put all the banknotes into his arms, and then said with a smile: “Shopkeeper Hu is very open, so I reluctantly accepted the banknotes!”

“…”

Everyone sighed: still reluctantly, If you find it difficult, you can give it to us. It’s not difficult for us!

After Jing Zhe put away the banknotes, shopkeeper Hu said: “This young master, please don’t forget that he guessed a lantern riddle and it was fifty taels of silver. We at Juxian Tower will give you twelve thousand five hundred taels of silver banknotes. Zhou Jiabufang will also give you 12,500 taels of silver!”

When shopkeeper Hu reminded him, Jing Zhe suddenly realized, “That’s right. Is Miss Zhou rich?”

“I…I don’t…”

Zhou Ziqiong said in a panic.

“Young master, she has no money, but their Zhou family’s cloth shop is worth a lot of money! You can ask her to mortgage the cloth shop to you. As long as the Zhou family can’t get the money, the Zhou family’s cloth shop will be yours!

” It was originally the original plan of Shopkeeper Hu and Prince Yu.

Send one of your own, the dying man in cotton-padded clothes who was beaten by Chen Jiannan and others, to come forward and guess two hundred lantern riddles correctly, then the Zhou family must pay five thousand taels of silver.

Given the current situation of the Zhou family, they will definitely not be able to take it out. Then they will force Zhou Ziqiong to close down the Zhou family cloth shop. In this way, shopkeeper Hu will make money, and the Qu family cloth shop can also annex the Zhou family cloth workshop. The most important thing is that Prince Yu can still occupy Zhou Ziqiong, who no longer has the aura of the Zhou family, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

After seeing the silly Jing Zhe yesterday, their plan was slightly adjusted, and they added the idea of inducing Jing Zhe to spend more money to guess lantern riddles. Finally, after Jing Zhe lost all his wealth, Magistrate Liu stepped in to recruit him.

From the original three eagles with one stone to four eagles with one stone, all four people in their team can benefit from it, it can be said to be seamless!

But despite all his calculations, he never expected that Jing Zhe would hear clearly about their plan, and then he would use it to his advantage, pretending to be a fool, and ruin all their plans!

Therefore, shopkeeper Hu can only make temporary adjustments to let Jing Zhe get Zhoujia Clothing Factory, and then they will quietly attack Jing Zhe!

“Oh, is this still possible?”

Jing Zhe glanced at Zhou Ziqiong and asked.

“Of course! It is natural to pay back debts! We, Juxian Tower, have given the young master twelve thousand five hundred taels as promised! Then Miss Zhou must also fulfill her promise. If Miss Zhou cannot come up with the money, the mortgage That’s what Zhoujia Bufang should do!”

Shopkeeper Hu, an enthusiastic citizen, gave Jing Zhe online advice.

Zhou Ziqiong’s face was already pale.

It seems that what he said before was right, his wife Zhang Xiaoyu will become the number one businesswoman in Anguo…

“It seems so…”

Jing Zhe laughed, just when shopkeeper Hu thought that his plan was going to succeed, Unexpectedly, Jing Zhe changed the topic: “But Shopkeeper Hu must have forgotten what I said before?” “What?”

“I told Miss Zhou, if I guess all the lantern riddles correctly, I won’t take any points from Miss Zhou.

“

For money, I just need Miss Zhou to stay with me for one day. Can you, Miss Zhou?”

Jing Zhe smiled and winked at Zhou Ziqiong.

At this moment, Zhou Ziqiong didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt like she was in another world, as if she had seen this look many years ago.

And she miraculously understood Jing Zhe’s eyes, knowing that he didn’t really want her to accompany her, but to put on a good show…

“This, this, this… this is not allowed!”

Shopkeeper Hu didn’t expect Jing at all. Zhe Hui is so “stupid”, that’s more than ten thousand taels of silver! Ordinary people can’t earn it in ten lifetimes, and with this money, they can marry each other every day and have sex every night, but in the end, they only have Zhou Ziqiong to accompany them for one day – is this worth it?

The most important thing is – if he doesn’t ask Zhou Ziqiong for money, how should he explain to Prince Yu?

“Why not?”

Jing Zhe asked back and sneered: “Since I guessed the lantern riddles correctly, the reward money should naturally belong to me. Don’t say that I don’t want Miss Zhou’s money, even if I give Hu All the money the shopkeeper gave me was given to Miss Zhou, and no one could say “no”!”

“…”

As soon as these words came out, Shopkeeper Hu knew that their plan to plot against Jing Zhe had failed. Not only did Crown Prince Yu not get Zhou Ziqiong and the little lady, but the cotton clothes of Zhoujia Cloth Shop were also sold out tonight. I bought hundreds of pieces and spread the word by word of mouth. The Zhou family’s business should turn around. I’m afraid the Qujia Clothing Store’s business will be difficult to do!

The most important thing is that I have handed over all the assets of Juxian Tower. After the National Day, the New Year atmosphere will fade away, and Juxian Tower will usher in the off-season. There will not be much business at that time, but there will be so many waiters in the building. He still has to pay the monthly payment, which puts him under a lot of pressure!

So it seems that a good thing that killed four birds with one stone was completely destroyed by a foreigner. Not to mention how angry I felt!

“Then, thank you young master…”

At this time, Zhou Ziqiong walked up to Jing Zhe, bowed to him, and smiled lightly.

Jing Zhe waved his hand and said: “Miss Zhou, you’re welcome. I don’t get this money for free. Miss Zhou, please don’t forget to accompany me!”

For some reason, Zhou Ziqiong glanced at Zhang Xiaoyu and said playfully: “As long as you give me the money, Mr. Zi Qiong can do whatever the lady wants!”

“…”
