MTL - Traveling Through Ancient Times To Be a Shopkeeper-Chapter 93

Yin Chengfeng and Qi Yihan left for almost two months, and among them, there was only one news report, and only a few numbers reported that they were safe.

The upper class dignitaries in Fucheng also got some news.

In this regard, the truth of the news is unknown!

Rumor has it that the second prince gained power, the prince was seriously injured, and the fourth prince was defeated.

The relationship between the Duke of Yin's mansion and the crown prince has long been no secret in the powerful family.

The rich and powerful families in the prefecture city have found out the details of Weicheng, and they may have some skills, but a countryman with mud legs can have official and business status, and he has become a new noble family in just a few years, and luck is behind him.

Wei Cheng was able to do it freely because of his backing.

Also, he was hostile to those aristocratic families in Weicheng, and believed that he might be able to do ordinary business. With such a large property, he is in charge of the backstage, and he is the subordinate who obeys orders.

These people really look down on a mud-legged kid.

Several aristocratic families in Fucheng who are hostile to Wei Cheng have been coveting the property under his name, especially the products produced by several large workshops, wanting to get the formula.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce, the Jin family, the Xu family, the Liao family and the famous Wen family.

The Wen family is a well-known family for generations, a prominent local family. When the family was at its peak, there was one first-rank official and three third-rank officials.

In his generation, the Wen family is very tall, the children are domineering, and the upbringing gradually loses the glory of the past.

The Wen family is glamorous on the outside, but gradually decays on the inside. The children of the family are all greedy for pleasure, and none of them is promising. Being able to maintain the status of a prominent family is also the heritage of the Wen family in Fucheng for a hundred years.

The Wen family coveted the huge wealth brought by the north-south travel and workshops.

The ancestors of the Jin family were originally wealthy merchants, who opened up businesses and overseas trade in the Dajing Dynasty to improve their status as merchants. Occupying the right time and place, the Jin family directly became an official and businessman of Jinling, occupying a certain power in Fucheng, and controlling the entire chamber of commerce in Fucheng.

The Xu family was born with mud legs, and became a nouveau riche by luck. They made their fortunes with grain and became one of the two major rice and grain merchants in Fucheng. Later, they married the Jin family.

The two families are backed by officials from the imperial city, and those officials are all related to the second prince.

With the good news from the imperial city, the hearts of the two families are still swollen, and they feel that it is the last chance to win the north-south trip and the workshop.

The Jin family, the Xu family, and the Wen family joined forces.

After discussing, let the Xu family come forward to lobby first, if people know good or bad, they don't need to fight. Not knowing good and bad, after the Duke's Mansion was defeated, they had to crush each other to death.

The Ming family, the Ye family, the Shen family, and the Zhang family, who are the leading families in Fucheng, all know the intentions of the other families, but they sit and wait to watch the show.

It's not that they are not interested in the north-south trip and workshops, they have this kind of thought, but they should be more cautious at this juncture.

A little carelessness will bring disaster to the family.

The world is undecided, and it is unknown who will win the battle.

Furthermore, if Wei Cheng didn't have the real ability, he couldn't catch up with Yin Guogong's mansion to become an official businessman, and he couldn't move it just by talking.

More or less, after dealing with Wei Cheng for several years, they agreed that Wei Cheng is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

The inflated hearts and high self-esteem of the three families are doomed to only see immediate benefits, not success or failure.

The three or two families were still very impatient, and after discussing with each other, they went to the Wei Mansion the next day.

Master Xu came forward to invite him.

Wei Cheng: "......"

He also got news from the imperial city, whether it was true or not, he had already expected that someone would make trouble.

He and Yin Chengfeng have been too high-profile in Fucheng for the past three years. In the past three years, their industries have expanded to the capitals of major provinces and states at the fastest speed, and many people are jealous of those with high profits.

When something happens, I can't wait.

Are the families behind the Xu family so impatient?

Since it is delivered to your door, there is no loss in going to the meeting.

Wei Cheng took Wei Hu out.

Then-

As soon as he sat down, Patriarch Xu said arrogantly: "Brother Wei, Ming people don't speak dark words. In the current situation, those who know the current affairs are the best. If you record the north-south travel and workshop in the chamber of commerce, the chamber of commerce will guarantee that you can Do business safely, otherwise...I won't say, Brother Wei is so smart that he can definitely guess."

Wei Cheng said indifferently: "Wei understands the meaning of Patriarch Xu."

As soon as he opens his mouth, he needs to travel north-south and workshops, which is to ask for his entire property. Under the name of the Chamber of Commerce, this is no different from directly robbing.

Patriarch Xu smiled: "Since Brother Wei understands, he must have made a decision."

Wei Cheng looked calm, and said slowly: "I am a very straightforward person. If I say something that is not pleasant to listen to, I must have a broad mind based on the 'magnanimity' of Xu Patriarch's delusion."

Patriarch Xu was taken aback.

This is being satirized....

Patriarch Xu was furious, but before his anger rose to his chest, he heard—

Wei Cheng sneered, his voice was very cold, and he said, "I'm afraid your Xu family can't afford it!"

After the words fell, Patriarch Xu's anger soared directly to the top of his head, his face turned red, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "You—"

Wei Cheng stood up directly from his seat, glanced at the half-served dishes, and said coolly: "This table of delicacies, it seems that I don't have the good fortune..." The tone was quite regrettable, After speaking, he ignored Patriarch Xu's anger and strode away.

Wei Hu, who was behind him, said something even more irritating, "Master, the dishes are not as good as our seafood restaurant. They are not sincere treats, and our family is not short of money. It would be better to wait for the subordinates to go to the seafood restaurant to order a table." Pack it back and add food to you and the Lord."

"It's because you want to eat, and you still make so many excuses. I'm happy with your master today. You go to the seafood restaurant and book a table, and I'll go back first." Wei Cheng's voice was obviously smiling.

"I'm going now!" Wei Hu said happily, and he didn't forget to say, "Master, when you go back, ask someone to go to the next door and call my daughter-in-law over for lunch."

Wei Cheng laughed angrily and said, "Am I the master or you are the master? It's up to the Master to order."

"The master is the most magnanimous, unlike some people who are stingy—"

The voice gradually became farther and farther away, and the volume of the last sentence increased, reaching Patriarch Xu's ears directly.

"..."

Patriarch Xu had never been treated like this before, his face was so gloomy that ink dripped out.

"Wei, Cheng, I won't let you go, you, here, I, wait—" Patriarch Xu was furious, his eyes were dark, and he pulled his hand hard—

clatter clatter—

Patriarch Xu swept the entire table to the ground angrily.

The restaurant he invited was still owned by the Xu family!

The conversation between Wei Cheng and Wei Hu directly tore his face apart and stomped the face of the Xu family to the ground.

—

When Wei Cheng returned to the mansion, he ordered the housekeeper to prepare less food for lunch, and ordered some from the seafood restaurant. Don't forget to ask the servants to invite people next door.

Seeing his master so happy, the butler thought he had good news, so he went to the back kitchen to spread the word.

Wei Cheng went straight back to the main courtyard.

As soon as he arrived at the main courtyard, he saw his little baby walking towards him with his little legs, and softly called, "Daddy~" The little hand was still open to him, asking him to hug him.

Wei Cheng smiled, took a big step forward, picked up the little baby, kissed the baby's white and tender cheeks, and then looked at the young master of the Yin family who followed behind him with a cold face.

"Chenglin, is there any news from the imperial city?" Wei Cheng asked while holding a small glutinous rice ball.

Ever since the letter Yin Wu gave him, he didn't treat him like a child.

A child from a wealthy family has never been looked down upon since childhood.

"No!" The voice was still so indifferent.

Wei Cheng carried the little glutinous rice **** into the living room. In the living room, he saw two little ones learning to walk. The servant Xiaonan was watching over him, but he didn't see his wife.

Wei Cheng asked the maid who was guarding the door: "Where is the lord?"

Maid: "Go back to master, the master is with Master Ren Nianluo."

The older Ren Nianluo is, it should be because the two elder brothers have something intimate to say.

Wei Cheng sat down holding Xiaotangyuan, put Xiaotangyuan on his knees and sat down, Xiaotangyuan was also happy to sit in his father's arms and could not get down.

Little Baozi is very keen on walking, and when he sees his father, he doesn't come to hug him.

Yin Chenglin stood by the side the whole time, looking at Wei Cheng with indifferent eyes.

Wei Cheng looked at Young Master Yin with a cold face in doubt: "Cheng Lin, why don't you sit down?"

"I won't sit." Yin Chenglin asked, "Uncle Wei, have you finished hugging the little glutinous rice balls?"

Wei Cheng: "..."

His little baby, hold you for a while as a child, do you still have any opinions? !

Seeing that Wei Cheng didn't speak, Yin Chenglin said, "I'll take the little glutinous rice balls." He directly stretched out his hand to take the little glutinous rice **** away.

Wei Cheng blocked Yin Chenglin's outstretched hand with one hand, pushed his hand away, stared at him, Yin Chenglin looked back indifferently.

"..." Wei Cheng looked at Yin Chenglin with a cold face and said, "Chenglin, first of all, you have to remember that the little glutinous rice **** are your Uncle Wei's and my children. I will hold my little glutinous rice balls, so there is no need for Chenglin to hold them. You have to hug them." Just go and hug your little cousin."

When Yin Sheng saw being rejected, his indifferent face became even more indifferent. He didn't even look at that little cousin.

Wei Cheng and Yin Shenglin looked at each other for a long time.

Sitting in her father's arms, Xiao Tangyuan blinked her **** eyes, watching why Brother Shenglin didn't sit down.

"Brother, sit~"

The little glutinous rice ball called out Ruannuo, and Yin Chenglin took a deep look before sitting down next to Wei Cheng.

Yin Chenglin sat down and looked at Wei Cheng and Xiaotangyuan again, then fell into deep thought.

Zhou Yuan returned to the living room, followed by Xiaoliu. When Zhou Yuan saw his husband coming back, he smiled and asked, "I saw Wei Hu happily carrying a few big food boxes. He said he ordered them in the seafood restaurant. Husband, how about you?" How can we ask Wei Hu to order lunch at the Seafood Restaurant?"

Wei Cheng picked up the little glutinous rice **** and walked over, "I went out to meet the head of the Xu family today. Wei Hu doesn't like the food in Xu's restaurant. He misses the seafood restaurant's dishes, cold dishes, and stewed duck with eight delicacies. He won't be able to eat once or twice with that little salary. , went out for a trip and didn’t have lunch, so I simply asked him to go to the seafood restaurant to order whatever he wanted, to make him happy.”

Wei Hu can't afford it, his husband is rich, Wei Hu still has the backbone not to eat soft food.

Lin Xiyu married a chicken and followed the chicken, married a dog and followed the dog, and he followed Wei Hu's life as he lived it. He didn't dislike it at all and enjoyed it.

You don't need to spend money to eat, you eat and drink in Wei's mansion all day long, what Wei Hu learned from his master is to eat staff meals.

Zhou Yuan took a look at his husband, just talking nonsense.

"Let's go to have lunch, everyone is waiting for us in the side hall." Zhou Yuan picked up the little bun that had walked to his feet and was pulling his feet up, "Husband, you give the little glutinous rice **** to Xiao Lin, let Xiao Lin Lead the little dumpling and walk over there, you go hug the little dumpling."

Yin Chenglin stood beside Wei Cheng, and immediately raised his hand to Wei Cheng to take the dumpling, even his face was less indifferent.

Wei Cheng: "..."

Wei Cheng looked at Yin Chenglin, then at Xiao Tuanzi, who had fallen a few steps and was still staggering towards him, and Xiao Nan followed him to protect him.

"I'm still holding the little dumpling, Chenglin is going to hold the little dumpling." Wei Cheng said to his wife, "Let's go, don't make Wei Hu wait, lest he can't help but eat it secretly."

"But, Xiaotuanzi..."

"Yuanyuan, Shenglin is Xiaotuanzi's cousin, you have to let them get along more." Then, holding Xiaotangyuan in one hand, he took his wife's hand in the other, and walked out.

Zhou Yuan thought that what his husband said made sense, he and her husband didn't hug Xiaotuanzi, Xiao Lin was Xiaotuanzi's cousin who would always hug him, so he let his husband drag him away.

Yin Chenglin, who was behind him, withdrew his hand, glanced at his little cousin with an indifferent face and expressionless, stepped up, and ordered in a cold voice, "Xiao Nan, hold your little master well!" and left straight away.

Xiao Nan said helplessly and amusedly: "Yes."

Wei Dong's family, Wei Master, it is impossible for you to let Young Master Shenglin hold the young master!

There was no one standing behind holding Xiaotuanzi in a daze: "......"

Why is there no one to hug?

"Bad~~" Xiaotuanzi protested crisply.

Had lunch.

Wei Cheng and Wei Lei seemed to have something to discuss, and they were about to get up and go to the main hall, when Yin Chenglin watched and took away the little glutinous rice **** sitting between his parents, leaving Wei Cheng alone!

"Uncle Yuan, I'm taking the little glutinous rice **** back to the yard."

Zhou Yuan smiled: "Go." He was still feeding the two cubs with complementary food.

Wei Cheng: "......"

He and Wei Lei had something to talk about, so they definitely wouldn't go with his little glutinous rice balls, it's just that this cold-faced boy was playing tricks on him.

Wei Cheng was dissatisfied, so he called him a cold boy.

Wei Cheng couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to talk things over.

What they talk about is for today's affairs.

Wei Lei said: "Chengzi, if you do that, the Xu family will definitely not be able to swallow this breath. If there is an accident over there, the Xu family will definitely not let us go. Do you have a countermeasure?"

"I'm going to tell you about this." Wei Cheng said solemnly, "As far as the worst possible plan is concerned, the two children of the Yin family and I have arranged an escape route with Steward Quan. On the Fucheng side, all the raw materials of the workshop will be destroyed immediately, and I will hand them over to you. Do."

"The seafood restaurant is under my name, but Haizhou Mansion will definitely not be able to keep it. Without the supply of seafood, the seafood restaurant cannot operate. Baizhenlou, Baiweifang and Nanbeihang will continue to operate."

Wei Lei frowned, "We offended the Xu family. With the relationship between the Xu family and the Jin family, we offended the entire chamber of commerce. If the store continues to operate, they will suppress it. This is very risky."

"Leizi, you have to know that the power in Fucheng is complicated, and the Jin family and the Xu family are not the only ones." Wei Cheng sneered, "The backstage of the Jin family and the Xu family is just a less important official under the second prince. I am still an official businessman. One day, they will move Baizhen Tower and North-South Travel, which is not so easy to do."

"Moreover, with the cooperation between the north and the south, merchants from various aristocratic families. We can find them to build connections with the connections behind them, as long as we give enough benefits."

"There is no need to do this for the time being. First, we must ensure that the workshop formula is not leaked. After that, we will retreat from Fucheng and return to Nanshan County. In Nanshan County, the hands of the Jin family and the Xu family cannot be stretched too far."

Wei Cheng didn't want to retreat, he wouldn't foolishly find an enemy for himself.

If the Yin family were to decline, even if he didn't offend the Chamber of Commerce, he would still consider returning to Nanshan County.

Fucheng is not where he, a small official and businessman without any acquired talent, can gain a foothold.

He has the ability to stand, and he can't do it.

Above the imperial power, no matter how capable he is, he is still an ant that is easily crushed to death.

His family has dealt with the Yin family before, if someone with a heart talks about his relationship with the Yin family, it is possible for the higher authorities to settle accounts.

Returning to Nanshan County is the best way. It can protect oneself wisely and secretly protect the two children of the Yin family.

—

at night.

A black shadow jumped into the main courtyard of the Wei Mansion and stopped in the guest room.

When Yin Wu appeared, the man in black knelt down and handed over a letter respectfully.

After Yin Wu took it, the man in black walked away.

Before Yin Wu knocked on the door of his little master's room, Yin Chenglin, who had already noticed the movement, came out with a cold face, dressed in formal attire, and seemed not to have fallen asleep.

"Little master, news from the imperial city." Yin Wu respectfully handed over the letter.

Yin Shenglin took the letter, but didn't read it right away. Holding the letter, he asked coldly, "Yin Wu, how can you completely occupy one of them without anyone snatching it from you?"

Yin Wu was very curious why the little master asked such a question, but as a secret guard, he replied loyally: "You can be accepted as a subordinate!"

Yin Shenglin was even more indifferent: "No!"

"... Married." Yin Wu said tentatively.

Yin Shenglin: "..."

Yin Wujing waited for his little master to reprimand him, and after a while, his little master turned and went back to the room.

The door was not closed, and after a while, Yin Wu was summoned by his young master.

Yin Shenglin stood in the middle, his small body imposing.

Yin Wu's heart tightened, and he immediately knelt down.

Yin Chenglin said slowly, "Yin Wu, father and the others are safe."

Yin Wu raised his head fiercely.

A letter fell into Yin Wu's hands without wind.

"The news is up there. I'm going to bed, and I'm going to get up early tomorrow to accompany Xiao Tangyuan."

Every few days.

The second prince was punished by the party.

The prince is orthodox and will ascend the throne immediately.

The world is settled, and the new emperor ascends the throne.

Fucheng, the Jin family and the Xu family, and the Wen family involved behind the scenes: "..."

Such an important event, why not come sooner or later—

They are miserable!
