Huang Jin was the largest silk merchant in Bingzhou, and he had a personal relationship with Li Yuan, he had strong capital, long-term vision, and great business acumen.

Huang Jin has always wanted to enter the cloth business, now he is ready for everything, but there is a lack of a big store in the capital, this time he is ready to put the store in Nanshi, during the inspection, he took a fancy to Zhang Xuan's shop at a glance, no matter the area, location and transportation made him very satisfied, but he couldn't find the owner, so he was disappointed and anxious.

Although he inspected several other shops, it was far less than what he had initially taken a fancy to, and just when he was anxious, the owner of the shop finally showed up.

But Huang Jin never imagined that the owner of this shop would be Zhang Xuan, and he was secretly surprised at first, lest Zhang Xuan refuse to agree to transfer the store to him.

But soon, he found that his worries were completely unnecessary, and Zhang Xuan was actually willing to rent the shop to him, and he was a little afraid that he would not rent it.

"Huang Dongzhu, I can give you the store, and I can also cheapen the rent by half, you can renovate and expand it as you want, in short, I will give you all the benefits, but I have a small condition."

Zhang Xuan stopped when he said this, took a sip of tea and glanced at him meaningfully.

Huang Jin is such a shrewd businessman, he immediately realized the deep meaning of Zhang Xuan's words, I'm afraid he wants to use his shop to do something, right?

But they have already spoken to this extent, Huang Jin can't go back, he knows too much, and it seems that it is too late to retreat now.

Huang Jin had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "As long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best." ”

"Of course Huang Dongzhu can do it!"

Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "My conditions are very simple, Huang Dongzhu's shop needs a lot of guys, I'll arrange three, how about it?" ”

Although Zhang Xuan didn't say what he arranged for his guys to do, Huang Jin understood in his heart. If he agreed, he was afraid that he would get on Zhang Xuan's ship, but if he didn't agree, he would offend this young prince, which made him hesitate for a while.

At this time, Zhang Xuan said slowly: "Huang Dongzhu is a smart person. You should know what to do and what not to do, if you don't want to cooperate, I won't force it, as long as there is nothing in the store, I won't bother Huang Dongzhu again, that's all! ”

Zhang Xuan's implication is to tell Huang Jin that if there is no accident in the store, once something happens. He didn't want to stay out of it, and this was a very straightforward threat.

Huang Jin felt a huge pressure, and he began to regret it a little in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, he was just a businessman, how could he afford to provoke Zhang Xuan, who was in the limelight.

He knew that he had already stepped on Jang Hyun's thief ship, and it might not be so easy to think about it again.

Zhang Xuan seemed to know his thoughts very well, and said with a faint smile: "In the future, I will be an official in the Jianghuai area." JAC is rich in cloth, if the cooperation is pleasant. Maybe I can help Huang Dongzhu a little. ”

Zhang Xuan's combination of soft and hard finally made Huang Jin succumb, and he sighed secretly in his heart, no matter what, he could only take one step at a time, maybe with Zhang Xuan's help, he could buy a large number of goods from Jianghuai. And can get a lot of profit from it.

"Alright! I am willing to cooperate with General Zhang. Huang Jin agreed to lease Zhang Xuan's shop and accepted Zhang Xuan's conditions.

Zhang Xuan also smiled happily: "I also know that Huang Dongzhu and Taiyuan Li Fugong have a close relationship, but I believe that Huang Dongzhu will keep this common secret for us." ”

Zhang Xuan's meaning was very clear, and Huang Jin nodded silently, "Please rest assured, general." I know what not to say. ”

"That's good, I'll hand over the store to Huang Dongzhu, and Huang Dongzhu can take care of it at any time."

．．．．．．．

Two more days passed, and in the past two days, Mrs. Lu was not idle at home, she went out to visit many high-ranking officials' wives, and from their mouths, she finally gradually understood what kind of person Zhang Xuan was.

Although Mrs. Lu was born in the famous Cui family and has an unusual attachment to the identity of the famous family, on the other hand, as the daughter of the Cui family, of course she hopes that her daughter will marry the Cui family, which is her wish for more than ten years.

If there is still a possibility for her daughter to marry the Cui family, even if Zhang Xuan becomes a general, it is useless, she will definitely stick to her original intention.

But the problem is that since her daughter followed Zhang Xuan to Beihai, the door of marriage with the Cui family has been completely closed, and the Cui family will never accept Lu Qing again.

Since she was no longer able to marry the Cui family, Mrs. Lu lost half of her support, and only the frame of a famous family limited Mrs. Lu's choice.

If Zhang Xuan is a poor scholar who is not literate, or a low-level petty officer, then the identity of a famous family still has a huge lethality, but now

When Mrs. Lu thoroughly understood the status of Jianghuai's envoy and general Zuowei, the identity of this famous family did not seem to be so important.

Interests began to prevail, and the snobbish nature of a woman began to revive in her heart.

In the room, Mrs. Lu once again opened the letter written by her brother Cui Zhao, which was just sent by her brother this morning, and the content of the letter the day before yesterday was the same, still asking her to try her best to prevent Zhang Xuan from marrying Lu Qing.

If the previous letter resonated with her because of her hatred for Jang Hyun, then today's letter has made her feel another in her heart.

She slowly realized that her brother's opposition to Jang Hyun marrying her daughter was not necessarily the will of the Cui family, but only her brother's personal idea.

And last night her husband told her that Xiangguo Su Wei was ready to be a matchmaker for Zhang Xuan, and was willing to be the man's marriage seeker, if the Lu family refused this marriage, the Lu family would offend Xiangguo, so last night her husband's attitude was very clear, and the Lu family would not refuse this marriage.

The strength of her husband, the reputation of her daughter, and the selfishness of her brother, Mrs. Lu began to waver, but more importantly, Zhang Xuan's status, with such a big benefit, how could she resist the temptation?

At this time, a maid reported at the door, "Madam, the guest is here." ”

Mrs. Lu suddenly woke up from her contemplation, she hurriedly got up and walked out of the door, Su Fu sent someone to deliver the letter early this morning, Su Erniang will come to visit her this morning.

Of course, Mrs. Lu knew Su Erniang, the daughter of Xiangguo Su Wei, and the wife of Du Mingzhong, the former servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Mrs. Lu had already vaguely guessed Su Erniang's intention.

Not long after, the housekeeper Ma Youpo brought Su Erniang into the inner house, and Mrs. Lu greeted her and said with a smile: "Why is Erniang free today." ”

"It's rare to be a little cool today, so I went out for a walk, and naturally I thought of visiting my sister!"

Su Erniang affectionately grabbed Mrs. Lu's arm, and the two walked towards the inner hall with a smile and a smile.

The two sat down in the inner hall, the maid served them mung bean ice bait tea, Su Erniang took a sip of ice tea, and said with a smile: "I've been busy in the past two days, running under the sun, and someone has tanned my skin." ”

"What are you busy with on the poisonous day?" Mrs. Lu asked with a smile.

"Don't hide it from my sister, my father asked me to assist General Zhang in buying a new house, and I bought a new house in Jiashanfang, and I sent more than a dozen maids and servants yesterday, and I was so busy all the time."

Su Erniang said very easily, so she turned the topic to Zhang Xuan.

Mrs. Lu secretly thought in her heart, sure enough, she came for Zhang Xuan's matter. However, she was no longer disgusted with Zhang Xuan at this time, and even accepted the marriage to some extent, she took a sip of iced tea and smiled without saying a word.

Su Erniang tried it, and saw that Mrs. Lu did not interrupt her topic, and she was secretly happy in her heart, she knew that this matter could be continued, but the purpose of Su Erniang coming to Mrs. Lu today was not to talk about marriage directly, she was ordered by her father to tell Mrs. Lu some secrets that she should know, she had to completely open up Mrs. Lu's joint, and this marriage was completed.

"I met Yu Niang yesterday, my sister still remembers her! We also went to the Huangkakuji Temple together to worship incense. ”

Of course, Mrs. Lu is very familiar with this Wang Yuniang, the daughter of the Taiyuan Wang family, one year younger than herself, and she has had dealings with her since she was a child, and almost married her brother, but in the end she married Pei Yun's eldest son Pei Xuanqi, who is also a very powerful woman.

"Of course I know her, but how could Erniang mention her?" Mrs. Lu asked puzzled.

"That's the case, she told me one thing, this matter is actually related to the Lu family, so I thought about it and decided to tell my eldest sister about it."

"What is it?"

Su Erniang smiled unhurriedly: "The Pei family is bent on recruiting Zhang Xuan as a son-in-law and marrying Pei Zhizhi to him, but Zhang Xuan seems to prefer the eldest sister's Qing'er, I heard from Yu Niang that Pei Xiangguo specially went to Brother Ling, hoping that Brother Ling would go out to stop the marriage between the Lu family and Zhang Xuan." ”

Mrs. Lu was taken aback and stood up, "Is this true?" ”

"This is what Yu Niang told me personally, and there is no lie."

Mrs. Lu sat down slowly, and she finally realized in her heart why her brother had twice and three times made herself oppose the marriage of Qing'er and Zhang Xuan, and it turned out that the Pei family was instigating her behind her back.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was almost used by her brother. (To be continued.) )
