Chapter 669: half angry
The business of the Yu family grew bigger and bigger under the leadership of Yu Jing, and gradually surpassed the three giants of Jialing City and became one of the emerging forces.
And because Master Yu was in a good mood, his body slowly returned to normal, and he looked like a normal person.
However, he has already delegated power, so he doesn't want to work hard anymore. After all, people in their 60s can't stand the toss.
Yu Jing's mother passed away last year, and more than a dozen concubines and their children took the opportunity to compete for the right to the Yu family's house, causing a mess.
When Yu Jing first took over, the Yu family was still unconvinced. After all, she was a daughter, and in terms of experience, she was far less than a few sons.
But Yu Jing's vigorous and resolute actions completely suppressed this group of cunning brothers and sisters, in just a few short years.
Yu Jing's family has been firmly seated as the head of the family, so she has the right to give Wang Ergou a reasonable price.
She knew that Wang Ergou was not someone with power, but Yu Jing admired him very much and wanted to give him a chance to perform.
After the plague of locusts, the Yu family did not dare to be as casual as before. Yu Jing's toughness and skill made them afraid.
So these people were quiet for a long time, and finally got used to Yu Jing's giving orders, but it didn't prevent the sisters from speaking badly behind their backs.
People have a mentality that they can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, especially sisters who are very close.
They often expressed their jealousy or sympathy for Yu Jing in various tones, but never had any real blessings.
Like now, the sisters are all gloating about misfortune. It seems that they are sure that Yu Jing will not be able to marry.
Yu Jing saw the faces of several sisters, and only sneered in her heart, but fortunately, those sisters walked away now.
She directly went to her father to discuss how to buy food without caring. After all, her father is in better health now.
"Father, my daughter is going to buy 100,000 catties of polished rice, 100,000 catties of potato vermicelli, 50 cents a catty of polished rice, and we will buy it and sell it for 80 cents."
Master Yu was silent for a while: "Are you sure you can buy rice? If you can buy rice, our Yu family's business will be even better. According to the current market, fifty cents is not expensive!"
"Father, my daughter is sure, and we have enough money in the house now, don't worry, my daughter will never fail."
Yu Jing swears and promises that she is now the head of the family, and she came to Master Yu specially to give him face.
Master Yu nodded: "Okay, you decide for yourself, no matter what you do, Dad will support you."
"Thank you dad."
After the father and daughter reached a consensus, Yu Jing immediately prepared the documents and deposit, and rode the carriage to the gate of the city.
Wang Ergou stared at the city gate, and when he saw Yu Jing again, he stood up and shouted as if he had been beaten with blood.
"Our food is all sold out today, what everyone needs..."
"Brother Wang, I'm here to pay the deposit." Yu Jing could see what Wang Ergou was thinking at a glance, and she hurriedly interrupted him.
Just kidding, one sale today is enough, and in the future, Yu Jing will monopolize the rice in Jialing City.
"Miss Yu is really here? This is our third uncle Cheng. He specializes in the business of our Xuanyan City."
Wang Ergou hates to introduce the two of them enthusiastically. He is looking at Yu Jing now, but he doesn't dare to regard her as a lunatic.
They didn't go into the city either. They found a pavilion outside the city to sit down and talk about it, just as Yu Jing said at the beginning.
She bought 100,000 catties of rice at a time, 50 yuan per catty. Yu Jing had written all the documents and paid a 30% deposit.
Pigs, chickens, eggs and vegetables are all required, so there is no deposit for those.
The two sides were very happy, and after negotiating, they agreed to deliver the goods to the door in ten days, because the carriage of the food was slow.
Yang Yulong led people back to the castle to prepare food, and before leaving, he glared at the guards provocatively.
The guards were even more so angry that they knew how good it would be to collect a few bags of rice in front of everyone's eyes.
Now, they don't get any benefits, and they also get a few knife eyes from their Futai adults. It's really **** mold for eight lifetimes.
And all the food was sold out, and their lords of thousands of households also heard the lords of their prefectures say that they would sell the good girls of Jialing Prefecture to these food sellers.
Uncle Cheng and his party, they didn't give a single copper plate to the guards, they went back happily with huge sums of money.
Jiang Xinyan and the others will arrive at Xuanyan City in three days. They are on the official road. After the plague of locusts, the hawkers and small traders fled.
There were few carriages and horses on the official road, and even the bandits did not know whether they starved to death or fled, and there was no one who stopped their carriages on the official road.
At this time, on the official road, more than a dozen large carriages drove slowly forward, and the speed was very fast. At first glance, they were on their way home.
At this time, the curtain of the carriage in the front was lifted, revealing a stunning face.
Jiang Xinyan looked around and found nothing unusual, but she still lowered the curtain.
went back to the carriage he was sitting in, stretched his hand out the window, lifted the fabric on the edge of the curtain and listened carefully.
"Madam, what's wrong?" Mo Yao, who was sitting beside her, asked softly.
"I seem to hear that there are at least five carriages going twenty miles ahead, and there are many people riding horses." Jiang Xinyan said softly.
"Madam, do you suspect those officers and soldiers or bandits?" Mo Yao asked a little scared.
"I don't know, it's just that I always feel something strange in my heart, but don't be afraid." Jiang Xinyan shook her head and said.
"Madam, let's hurry up and hide. Go to the mountain to find a place. My father will send someone to inquire about the situation. If there is really a problem, we should stay away." Mo Yao said.
"Don't be afraid, Mrs. Ben is here." Jiang Xinyan replied softly, and then retracted her hand.
It was almost noon now, Jiang Xinyan and the others were still more than 200 miles away from Youzhou City.
According to the current speed, it is estimated that it will take two to three days to reach Youzhou City.
Although Jiang Xinyan was reluctant to take this rugged official road, but this was the only way to return to Xuanyan City, she withdrew her hand again.
It was almost noon now, and the sun was hanging high in the sky, exuding a scorching temperature.
Jiang Xinyan sat in the carriage of the carriage, her body couldn't help feeling a little hot, and her forehead was sweating.
"Madam, are you hot?" Mo Yao, who was sitting next to her, asked with concern.
"Well, a little bit." Jiang Xinyan said and stretched her hand out of the car curtain.
Her actions caused Mo Yao to worry for a while: "Madam, it's very sunny outside, don't put your hands out."
"Oh." Jiang Xinyan replied and put her hand back.
The carriage was walking on the bumpy official road, and the people in front were getting closer and closer, and Jiang Xinyan had already guessed who it was.
