138. 138 chapter showdown

Daylight and hustle and bustle, Xi Junyu walked through the courtyard under the eaves and stopped a little before entering the room on the side, nodding with the two of them.

“Chen Shopkeeper, how is the reaction of Rongji over there?”

The man he called Chen Shopkeeper was named Chen Youhe. He listened to Xi Junyu and shook his head. “There is still insisting on raising the price, and they plan to go up to 42 or 2 yuan.”

“That’s robbing.” Xi Junyu frowned, but because similar bad news has been commonplace in recent times, he hasn’t shown much volatility, just sullenly sitting at the table, “Lv Kee There are four or two over there.”

“It has already been said, but Rong Li said that the big man has no problem at the moment. Once the second lady comes down, the Su Family is very difficult to change. They are waiting for a loss, so they must have this price.”

“Second Miss will not come down!” Xi Junyu paused. “Su will not be so short-sighted. Even if he is dead, he will help to keep the Main Branch there. With the ability of Miss II, sooner or later will come again!” ”

His statement was ruthless, but the room was silent. My family knows that the situation is really bad at the moment. Second Branch Third Branch is desperately trying to tear down the Main Branch. Even if it is Su Yu, it seems to be a little powerless now. The elderly can’t hold on to so many people saying this. where. The voice of Su Family Main Branch has been affected in the vicinity of Jiangning in the last month. The most important thing is that some suppliers of supply or distribution are asking for price increases or raising profits. Most of them are still dragging, Su Family is dead and biting. Do not let go, let this side wait for the other side, etc., but in the hidden influence, I am afraid that the total profit of Main Branch has been dragged down by 20%, the most terrible is the development problem in the future.

“Mom… one step at a wrong step…”

Xi Junyu sighed with a sigh of relief, then shook his head with a sullen face and began to deal with some things on the table, such as the arrival and delivery of goods. The two Shopkeepers next to me were also gloomy, and Chen Youhe shook his head. “It’s not the negligence of the Emperor’s time…”

A few people in the room didn’t say anything more, but everyone knows what this passage means. Recently, there has been a saying that began to spread in the scope of Su Family, mainly after the self-examination of the situation of the Huangpu workshop during the period of the Emperor Shang.

For example, many Shopkeepers can be responsible for themselves, but there are also a lot of things that require a total control person to come to the game. The small workshop responsible for the study of the new cloth was originally taken care of by Su Tan Er. There was no problem, but after Su Tan Er fell ill, there was some negligence on some levels. Now, Su Family, the experienced shopkeepers of Su Family, seems that if Ning Yi was too excited in the operation of Ming Huangbu during that time, it would be too big and too big, and there were many small details that should not have appeared.

If Su Tan Er came to personally during that time, when they chose a radical direction in their propaganda strategy, they would certainly make some fine-tuning of the secrets of the small workshops to suit this direction. However, after Ning Yi’s game, he did not understand the small details. The guidelines in the workshop have not changed. Zhou Shopkeeper White Shopkeeper has to work hard to keep secrets, but he has to cooperate with the high-profile publicity above. Traces, so Wu Family has made a hole in these most fundamental strategic aspects.

This thing made everyone think that it was particularly wrong, they did everything, and finally lost to the girl. Experience, all the problems are based on experience. At that time, no matter which Shopkeeper was allowed to control the overall situation, I am afraid that this problem will not occur.

The scholar who lost the book was also outrageously writing what “the white prime minister knows the sword”, shame…

In the past, everyone was still ignoring Ning Yi. I feel that if I win, I will definitely have nothing to do with him. If I lose, there is no way. However, such a statement has only become clear in the past half a month. Therefore, in recent times, Su Family’s remarks about Ning Yi have become fierce. Shopkeeper was originally considered to be good at people, and it was justifiable, but it was still depressed after all. In the eyes of Chen Shopkeeper and others, Xi Junyu’s slight disappointment at this time came.

The room was quiet for a while, and the sound of business dealing with sorrow and rustling sand. In the silence, Xi Junyu looked side by side, and only some angry eyes had calmed down.

Probably already prepared, the clan assembly will begin within half a month, and when Tan’er is dismissed, it is best to let such remarks go to the highest. If it is the Second Branch Third Branch, such a blame may lead to her hostility, but if it is said that the people around me are saying this, she will inevitably be angered in the event of decadence. Human nature is nothing more than this.

After the Emperor Shang, Su Family blasted the pot, all kinds of confusion, all kinds of words. No one knows that these remarks about Ning Yi are all driven and guided by him. There is no need to invite people to preach, as long as there are some words in some conversations that are enough to cause people to think. Let them think about it and let them go to deduct. On the other hand, increasing the feeling that everyone “has not done anything but lost”, increasing the feeling of grievances and feelings of sorrow… From beginning to end, he is watching as an sensible person, even helping Ning Yi to say Some words, of course, these words have only played a counter-reverse effect.

Everything is well laid out, he is long. The more ideal situation was that Ning Yi couldn’t help but make a few unsettled things at home. Unfortunately, the scholars were very tolerant. In the face of all kinds of provocations, they knew that they were useless and they didn’t say anything. They also pretended one. The deputy leisure attitude comes, but it doesn’t matter. Right now he has begun to hint at these people in the family: there is nothing in this guilt.

I thought about it at random, and suddenly, Wu Qilong’s face flashed through his mind and he frowned.

“Chen Shopkeeper, how was Wu Family recently, I seem to have heard some problems.”

“It’s not very clear. I heard that a manager is too busy to get sick. Qin industry, I have dealt with it once in the past two years.” Chen Youhe looked up. “Some people talk about Wu Family going to do something like this.” It is estimated that the Xue family is behind the scenes. The Emperor is about to deliver, and then the Wu Family will be busy for a while, and the Xue family is expected to take advantage of it.”

“Oh.”

Su Family people definitely don’t like the Wu Family, but as a man, they have just been pitted there. At this time, they definitely don’t like to listen to other people talking about Wu Family’s gossip. Chen Youhe said casually, Xi Junyu nodded, then thought about what Wu Family could do… No matter what, Wu Family’s current events are not at the same level as Su Family. Will go further and further. Everything is going to go with them. Right now, you will get things done.

In short, everything is going well.

He glanced at the afternoon sun in the window outside the courtyard, the atmosphere was peaceful, but there was some feeling of death. It’s been less than half a month since the Su Family clan conference, and everything will be settled. These people belonging to Main Branch are now somewhat decadent, and they are doing everything, and their destiny is unknown. Perhaps only him, can clearly and clearly know where he is and what he is doing. Only he is the one who has a home.

So he smiled, just like the sunshine.

******************

The quiet room in the afternoon was a little dim due to the closed doors and windows. The room was full of medicinal taste. At this time, in front of the sturdy bed, the woman with the sleek and elegant face held a porridge bowl, raised the cockroach and blew it, and then sent it to the patient’s mouth.

“…Clan Congress… I heard that Grandpa Seven decided to let me down. Second Uncle finally convinced him… Three uncles were busy digging people. In recent days, he said that it was a pity that Liao Shopkeeper was sent out… Remembering that there is a need to raise the price, Lu Ji is also, more trouble, and they have to run back and forth after a while…”

A spoonful of spoonfuls feeds the patient to drink porridge, and slowly talks about things in the house. The woman at the bedside is actually a little tired, but with a faint smile on her lips, tiredness, and some ironic feelings. Stretched his hand and stroked his hair, leaning his head to look at the father on the bed. In fact, there is also a bit of bitterness in my heart. I originally came to visit the disease and didn’t want to talk about these troubles. However, in retrospect, the constant communication between the father and the daughter, except those that are purely social, seems to have only these.

It has been two and a half months since the assassination of Su Bayong. During this time, Su Bayong has confirmed the shackles, the two legs have no feeling, and the left-handed action has actually been affected. Nowadays, the body is still weak, changing the medicine every day, unable to get out of bed, the spirit seems to have been affected to some extent, and many times it is not good. Su Tan Er comes over every day, but the father and the daughter talk about it. In many cases, the mother and the mother-in-law are just saying a few greetings. At this time Su Tan Er was silent for a moment.

“Today in the street, I saw a lot of citrus, oh, I used to eat it… Hey, there is no wind today, see if you want to open the window… It’s better to open it, oh…what? Air convection… Then the sun is coming in, and the mood will be good…”

She was able to find out the true words that came out. When she talked about Ning Yi, she smiled happily. Su Bayong nodded over there, then shook his head again: “Still… don’t open it, it’s cold… It feels cold… In addition, Tan’er, Li Heng, what are you doing recently?”

Su Tan Er smiled slightly: “Isn’t you looking at you every day? He recently taught the children and went out to play every day…” Su Tan Er’s smile has actually faded, a touch Talking about the recent events of Ning Yi. In fact, I understand the reason why my father asked these questions. In this bed, my father sighed a few times: “I can’t see him.” It is also reminding her.

These things are unreasonable. How good it is to be able to do things, Su Tan Er is also curious, but his father’s ideas are different from their own. After talking a few more words, she summoned a sentence outside the door, let her father’s servant girl show her in, handed the porridge bowl to her, and then began to rise and leave.

This one and a half months, she has a lot of things to do every day. It is not easy to stabilize the situation at the moment. She has also spent a lot of effort. But this time, it is no longer as unpredictable as before the Emperor’s business. Come, my heart is actually stable, good spirit, just physically busy. After going out, Juan’er followed him and greeted him. It was obvious that Miss’s emotions were not good.

There was still a place to go in the afternoon, and things were going to be busy. The master and the servants came out of the yard, but they heard some quick voices from the side yard.

“It’s all like this, what are you thinking about…”

“Not so simple, my sister…”

“I have heard about it, but this Main Branch is not her alone. Everyone is going to do it with her. It’s already like this… Main Branch is Boyong’s, you have to help Boyong hold this. Share…”

“I know……”

“If it wasn’t for Ning Yi, I didn’t understand anything.

Vaguely, it was such a conversation. When two figures appeared on the doorway there, they suddenly stunned. Su Tan Er dignified in a ceremony: “Two Niang, Uncle…”

“Hey, Tan’er, come over… look at the lord…”

“Second Miss.”

Talking to the second wife and her brother at home, this is also one of the Shopkeepers in Main Branch. After the greetings, the two sides parted ways. When there was no one to go, Juan’er snorted: “Miss, the second lady and the ancient Shopkeeper negotiated surrender…”

“I know.” Su Tan Er smiled slightly. “Not only them…”

Recently, Main Branch has had such a thing, and there are actually many differences within it. Some people think that Main Branch will definitely not be able to get the owner. Don’t fight more and save some of their own interests. Even if Su Zhong Kan or Su Yunfang’s family is in the future, they will not be driven out. The more you stay, the better you will be in the future. The two mothers, even their own mothers, seem to hold this attitude. Of course, if Su Tan Er really wants to talk openly, they will probably say “nothing to do”. “We don’t care about business.”

In the other direction, they are actually working for Main Branch, Su Bayong, for themselves, just a little short-sighted and a little bit cool, and they are considering these things with the minds of women who only use them for housework. thing.

“Juan’er, fortunately, you are not born in a big family…”

“Yeah?” Juan’er blinked.

“This home has no human touch.”

Su Tan Er smiled slightly, Juan’er snorted, she was a servant girl, and it was not good to comment. The two stopped on a small pond near the garden. Su Tan Er looked at the reflection in the water, sorted out her hair, and whispered: “In fact, I don’t have much human touch…”

“No, miss and guye are very good.”

“Between the Achilles and the Apes, I can’t get close to me…just grievances, um, he has been outside during the day.”

“Well, some people in the family are very difficult to listen to, and Guye is too lazy to fight with them, but I certainly don’t like to listen… The last time I was still crying.”

Su Tan Er frowned, his eyes flashed a stern color, and for a long while, he took a deep breath and smiled at Juan’er: “Do people remember it?”

“Oh…” Juan’er groaned a little, then bowed his head. “How did Miss know.”

“Because I am a sister.”

Su Tan Er said of course, Juan’er was a little embarrassed, bowed his head and said: “I, I and my nephew have written down, last time… the last time I secretly remembered my name with my nephew at home. Guye saw it.”

“Oh? What do you say?”

“Say we be careful.”

“Oh.” Su Tan Er sneered out, then converge on the smile. “Remember to show me, don’t tell the public.”

“Yeah.” Juan’er nodded. Since he won this gold medal, he then began to complain: “Miss, in fact, in recent days, they have become more and more excessive, and some have let Guye himself Su Family left… How long have we been able to solve the problem… In fact, Guye is the most wronged, and sometimes Juan’er can’t listen…”

“People are he…”

Su Tan Er paused, recalling the things that have been going on for more than two months, especially after the annual meeting of the Emperor’s merchants, their own busyness is actually second to none, and Ning Yi is in the midst of all the accusations. It’s just that Juan’er 杏儿杏儿 can’t stand it, and every time she wants to stand up and swear, even Ning Yi patted her shoulder and let her go back, only she could clearly Feel the power behind each and every thing, the stunned and determined behind the random figure. Every time such a thing makes her feel that she is actually somewhat sorry. At the beginning of the marriage, I thought that these were all things that I had to kneel down. I also tried very hard to do it. In the end, it was still the figure that stood out and understated.

“It won’t last long. The news has already begun. If the Wu Family’s reaction is normal, it’s almost…” She looked around at the scenery. “Almost a few days, I can start the showdown…”

After saying this, my heart seems to be slightly relieved: “It’s a long two-and-a-half-month…” she sighed in a sigh. “After the event is over, after the end…” What I thought of in my heart, there was a touch on my face. The blush flashed over, and she looked down at the reflection in the water, then raised her hands and raised her hair, and looked at herself in the water. Sure enough, I have to wait until I am finished. Now I am really embarrassed, so I can’t match him…

She smiled in the water, and the woman let go of her hair and walked forward.

“Let’s go, prepare for the showdown.”

In the afternoon sun, the woman’s free and confident pace was taken, and the small servant girl happily followed. This day is the eighth lunar month of Jinghan. Although it has been decided to showdown, after going through some procedures, it will naturally have to wait for a few days. But in fact, that is, this afternoon, some things have already happened. This thing seems to be quite natural, but if you think about it later, it may make people feel a bit awkward.

In this afternoon, in a tea house, Ning Yi may have arrived at the scene, and did a random process for a small thing. Of course, this little thing in his opinion may be unimaginable for others.

One day earlier, Ning Yi met Wu Qilong on the street. It looked like an encounter, and both sides seemed to say hello. For a month and a half, this may not be the first time they met, but it was indeed the first time to say hello. Wu Qilong was talking to a businessman on the cloth line and saw Ning Yi. “Ning brother, it’s good lately.” Ning Yi also bowed his hand: “It’s okay.” After parting ways, Ning Yi was too lazy to take this matter to heart.

Then, today, after finishing the class, he ran to Dongji to buy an old book. This is probably a book brought in by the Hu merchants from the Western Arab region. There are quite a few graphics on it, which probably involve knowledge of alchemy. Ning Yi was also bought by hand. After I decided to find someone to translate, I went to the teahouse to drink tea after I bought the book. I also asked Xiao Er to take the pen and paper. He looked at the pictures and guessed. This book is probably something – this kind of conjecture is also a way to recall the knowledge of the past, is buried in the writing and drawing, a figure has come to the side.

“Ning brother, really, what is this?”

Ning Yi looked up and saw that it was very coincidental. It was Wu Qilong who immediately nodded and said hello. Later, Wu Qilong sat down on the other side of the tea table, so Ning Yi also introduced it casually.

“It should belong to the Arab region. This is a Persian in the north. I don’t understand it, but the graphic looks like it should be a chemical reaction involving several metals… Does it understand chemistry? Hey, like alchemy…”

“Ning brother is really involved in a wide range. Oh… the chemical reaction of metals?”

“The purification of metals and the like.”

“Oh?” Wu Qilong calmed up. “So… isn’t that very useful?”

“Generally, what we said above, most of the blacksmiths on our side should have mastered it, but the stone of his mountain can attack jade. Their way of thinking is different and can be used for reference.” Ning Yi said here. , raised his head and looked at Wu Qilong, “Wu brother is waiting for someone?”

“Oh, nothing, just strolling around, just seeing Ning Xiong here, some curiosity.”

Ning Yi nodded and his eyes didn’t move. Wu Qilong smiled. The two looked at each other for a while. After a moment, Ning Yi blinked and nodded. He waved Xiao 2: “Add a cup. ”

He lowered his head again and began to draw a picture on the book to the paper. Frowning and thinking, after the cup came over, he did not look at Wu Qilong, but just stretched out his hand: “Wu brother please take it.”

“Thank you.” Wu Qilong smiled and poured tea for himself. Ning Yi was still looking down at the graphics and sighed as if he had heard some other answers that Wu Qilong had said, so he muttered with some scorn. : “Oh, the cloth is starting to fade…”

Wu Qilong’s smile momentarily stagnated there, and his hand shook a bit, but after all, he still stabilized the teapot and gently put it back. Leaning his head, his eyes fixed on Ning Yi with a serious and fierce look, his face twitching a few times. Some things come from the bottom of my heart. It is the touch of the nightmare that finally turns into reality. There are still some mistakes. In his anticipation, these conversations should not be like this. Ning Yi should not say such an understatement. thing.

But in front of his eyes, everything is presented in this way. Ning Yi is still writing and painting. It seems to him that it is just like the early winter and summer snacks and tea in his eyes. He is just Say this sentence in a chat with people: Oh, the cloth began to fade, no wonder you have to sit down.

A very common thing.

“Sure enough… you did it…”

Wu Qilong has to work hard to restrain the tone from gnashing or tremble.

In the early winter sunshine, Ning Yi put down her brush, raised her head, and looked at him…
