Qiu Yan touched the goosebumps on his arm, and glanced at Lu Chiye with some horror.

"What are they trying to do? Isn't there a special team to take care of such things as sending confidential letters? Why do you have to let us deliver it? ”

"Who knows? We haven't investigated what the people in the court want to do, but the only good news is that the letter has been successfully delivered. ”

After speaking, Lu Chiye couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He couldn't imagine now that if the previous letter was not successfully delivered to the battlefield and handed over to that deputy general, what kind of disaster would it bring to the Lu family?

All Qiu Yan's good moods have also disappeared without a trace.

As long as I thought that the man who came to her to send the letter that day was holding a big knife and hanging it over their heads, the whole person was not good.

Why are there such vicious people? Actually let them take such a big risk.

The couple couldn't wait to scold the person who came to send the letter before to vent their dissatisfaction.

Two days later, just after dawn, when the two went to the shop to inspect the business, the man who sent the letter suddenly came.

As soon as he saw Qiu Yan, he immediately changed his previous serious appearance, and greeted her politely, "Mrs. Lu came very early today, did you come to see the store with the head of the Lu family?" ”

As soon as he saw this person, Qiu Yan's heart suddenly became alarmed, and he hurriedly pulled Lu Chiye back two steps, and looked at the man under his skin without knowing it.

Said coldly, "I don't know what the guests are doing?" Our shop has just opened and is ready to open, and a lot of things haven't been packed up yet. ”

"There's no rush for this, I'm just here today to thank you both."

"The previous letter has been successfully received by my friend, and today I plan to invite the two of you to go to the Treasure Hall in the east of the city for a good meal."

"Really?" Lu Chiye didn't even have a smile on his face, which was completely different from when he received customers in the past, so he directly rejected what the man said.

Because he was not sure of the other party's intentions, it was not easy to directly expose the other party's identity now, but he just glanced at him indifferently.

"Forget about eating, we still have some things to deal with today, but I'm afraid that we will have to live up to the hospitality."

A look of embarrassment flashed on the man's face, knowing what happened before, it aroused Qiu Yan's vigilance, so he could only politely bow his hand to them, and said embarrassedly.

"I also know what happened before, it was indeed what I did inappropriately, so I sincerely apologize to the two of you here, please don't take it to heart."

"What is this guest saying, why don't I understand it?" The corners of Qiu Yan's mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile.

I let their heads hang in the air for a long time before, and finally completed the most important first business without danger, but now they are still pretending to apologize to them, is this too much to look down on them?

This man also knew that Qiu Yan and his wife were not ordinary people.

Especially being able to make express delivery, this kind of magical thing, at a glance, you can know that the minds of the two are definitely quite flexible.

In addition, the Lu family's business is developing smoothly, and with money in hand, it is not difficult to inquire about some news.

I could only smile bitterly and explain stubbornly.

"Both, it's true that I did something wrong before, but I can't help it."

After speaking, he walked several steps towards the inside of the store, until he pulled the couple to an extremely hidden corner and stood still, then he lowered his voice and whispered.

"I also have unspeakable secrets, in fact, within the imperial court, there are many more difficult situations, which is really not good to talk to outsiders."

"Besides, now your Lu family has the name of the imperial merchant, and you have made a courier, such a novel and very safe thing, I am also doing things for the adults above, so I entrusted the matter to you."

"Really?" Lu Chiye couldn't help but sneer, and looked the man up and down several times.

It wasn't until he was already looking uncomfortable that he snorted coldly.

"The guest said that it is so light, if this letter delivery fails, won't you and your lord really blame us?"

"In the final analysis, our Lu family is just doing ordinary business, where can we afford to offend adults who do things in the officialdom, isn't this too much to look up to us?"

"That's right, this time we are lucky, but if something really happens, I'm afraid that our Lu family will be the first to be targeted by you, right? We can't afford to apologize. Qiu Yan complained.

This man knew that because of the previous incident, he had been hated by Qiu Yan and them, but he had no choice but to explain it in embarrassment.

"Please don't be angry, I just accept the arrangement from above to do things, and all this is not what I want."

At this moment, there are already pedestrians coming and going outside, and they are starting to move constantly.

Qiu Yan didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of person who was in front of him and behind the scenes, and gave an order to evict the customer very politely.

"If you don't have anything else to do, please go out first. We have other business to attend to, and I'm afraid we don't have the time to receive guests like you all the time. ”

The man knew that he had provoked the anger of the public this time, so he could only find a way to solve it.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and quickly let one of the attendants who came with him run away.

A plaque covered in red satin was delivered, and even two family members were asked to carry a large mahogany tray.

Waiting for those people, after walking in front of Qiu Yan and the couple, he took two steps back and said sincerely.

"Both, I apologize again to you for what happened before. These are the great ones above me, who have been given to two, and I beseech them to receive them. ”

As he spoke, he first ripped off the red cloth on the mahogany tray.

Qiu Yan was shocked to find that there were actually hundreds of taels of silver placed on it!

As for the other plaque covered with red satin and hung with big red flowers, it was actually a plaque with gilded gold!

Moreover, in the lower right corner, there is also a seal engraved with four golden dragons coiled together.

No matter how stupid they were, they should have known what this seal represented, and looked at the man with some surprise.

The man smiled bitterly and said embarrassedly, "The adults above me said that the two of you did quite well this time, and this is a reward for the two of you." ”

"In the future, with this plaque, the imperial merchant will not only be listed, you can use this signboard to handle business in a serious way, which must be beneficial to the two of you."

Although the husband and wife were not very happy that they were deceived by this man before, they almost caused their heads to move.

However, the follow-up compensation method of the people has done quite well, and now that he has the title of an imperial businessman, it will be easier to do things in the future.

This is also a good thing for them, so they can only reluctantly accept it.

He smiled perfunctorily at the man, "In this case, then thank you for going the extra mile." I don't know ......."

"Ah, nothing." Seeing them like this, the man knew that he didn't want to talk to him anymore, and quickly took a few steps back.

"Then I won't bother the two of you, and when I have business in the future, I will definitely deliver it to the door in person. Both, I'll take my leave. ”

So saying, he left by the door with his attendants.

It wasn't until the person had already walked away that Qiu Yan excitedly rushed to the side of the plaque, carefully stroking the font with pure gold on it, and his eyes were crooked with joy.

"Husband, should we hang this plaque? Now we are the real imperial merchants, think about it, and a little happy. ”

"Even if we want to hang it up, we don't know which store is more suitable to choose."

"In this way, let's take it home first, but we can ask some people with extremely strong martial arts to protect us, and parade this imperial merchant brand twice along the street, so that everyone knows that our Lu family is no longer what it used to be."

Lu Chiye gently touched this plaque, and his heart was full of emotion.

Now that the Lu family has finally gone one step further in his hands, this is really rare.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." After saying that, Qiu Yan deliberately went to the dart bureau, and after borrowing a number of martial arts masters from Qin Baiyang's hands, he asked them to carry this plaque and walk around several of the most lively streets.

Everyone didn't expect that the Lu family would develop so fast, and they really received the plaque of this imperial merchant from the imperial court, and they were all extremely envious and jealous.

Qiu Yan and his wife walked at the forefront, accepting the compliments of countless people, and they were still a little proud in their hearts.

When the plaque was sent back to the Lu family, just let people enshrine it in an ancestral ancestral hall of the Lu family, and the two ran back to the study all the way and began to discuss what had just happened.

Qiu Yan's brain was flexible, thinking about the man's excited appearance when he came over today, and whispered next to Lu Chiye.

"Husband, you said that we have already sent the letter, will there be a complete victory on the battlefield? After a while, there should be good news, right? ”

"Yes, and when that side is over and the warriors return triumphantly, we will definitely receive more rewards."

"When the time comes, you can hang the plaque of the imperial merchant at the main entrance of the Lu family, so that everyone knows that our Lu family has now begun to develop vigorously."

"Makes sense!" Qiu Yan nodded excitedly.

Regarding the battlefield, the two also attach great importance to it.

Therefore, Lu Chiye also specially arranged for some people to live near the battlefield, paying attention to the movements over there all the time, and sending them back the latest situation by the way.

After a period of time, the war really ended, the soldiers returned triumphantly, and the Lu family naturally became the focus of everyone's eyes again.

After all, being visited by officials many times in a row, and even giving them gifts back and forth, this is not something that ordinary businessmen can do.
