novelDecline Cooperation
| ← Ch.085 | Ch.087 → |
However, Ning Yan still rejected the invitation of the Second Madam. The barbecue was her first business, and she did not want to be controlled by the Second Madam. At the very least, she had to control the barbecue shop with Tongxian County.
After all, Ning Yan had planned for the barbecue to be a special feature of Tongxian County, just like how the later generations of Tianjin would not care about buns or Peking Duck.
If that was the case, the Tongxian County would develop and her rich master's dream would come true.
"If that's not the case, when we have other business in the future, we can work with the Second Madam." Ning Yan pondered. After she raised the rabbits in the village head's home, the Mrs. Qian would grow the chili peppers.
The benefits are definitely greater than the cost of roasting the cake.
When Second Madam left, she stared at Ning Yan with hidden bitterness: "Forget it, there's no need for me to go back now."
After seeing the barbecue shop's business, the Second Madam couldn't think of anything better than barbeque.
In her opinion, Ning Yan's words were just an excuse. Ning Yan persisted in her thoughts.
If she cooperated with the Bai Family Second Madam, then she could only split the barbeque business between them, and the one in power in the county would definitely be the Second Madam. As for the entire Xuan Empire outside of the county, the benefits probably had nothing to do with her. It should be the sharing of Bai Family with the other clans.
When the time came, he would not have any initiative. If he wanted to do business with the Bai Clan, he would have to wait until he had some confidence.
Even if the barbeque business failed, he could not be controlled by others. This was Ning Yan's current mentality.
Chen Huo who had just returned from the mountain happened to hear the conversation between Ning Yan and the Bai Family Second Madam, and asked, "Does the Lady Ning want to find someone to work with to make the barbecue?"
"Yeah, you have someone you recommend?"
"If we are to cooperate, there is indeed a person. If the Lady Ning is interested, I will send someone over."
"Sure." Ning Yan nodded.
Lu Hanzhang would definitely know people that Chen Huo knew, and they would have some influence on each other's identities.
This way, there would be less trouble in the shop.
This time, he did not cooperate with Second Madam, who knew if Deputy Governor Bai would be so angry that they would make those people from the underworld find trouble.
The little bit of friendship between Ning Yan and the Second Madam was far from being able to protect the shop, especially with the barbeque business being so popular, it was hard to tell how many people were paying attention to this area.
In the past, the Second Madam still cared about him a bit, but that was not always the case.
Chen Huo wrote a letter and sent it to the capital using a pigeon.
However, something happened in the shop the next day.
After hearing the letter, Ning Yan rode his horse over to the city. Fortunately, she knew how to use his horse so she did not leave his brown horse behind. She did not spend too much time to get to the city.
Holding the horse, Ning Yan saw Elder Mrs. Lee squatting on the ground, crying and making a ruckus. She even shouted: "This old woman has a hard time living, raising her granddaughter by taking a piss, blending with the mountain bandits and even spawning evil beings. Not only did this old woman not send her to the river, she even raised this young one up.
"My granddaughter went to the market and posted the rich people to open a shop, so I just ignored the old granny. Look, the employees in the shop are all better dressed than the old granny. Why is such a person still alive, does the heavens not open their eyes?"
"Of course it's because I'm lucky." Ning Yan passed the horse in her hand to Ah Wang, looked at Elder Mrs. Lee who was lying on the ground, and then looked at Ning Wan'er who was beside Elder Mrs. Lee.
"Tsk ..." Elder Mrs. Lee didn't go to the county city even once in half a month, so she didn't know that the shop was hers at all.
On the other hand, Ning Wan'er mixed in with the Deputy Governor Bai. She had just rejected Second Madam's cooperation, and Ning Family was coming to cause trouble. It seemed like Bai Family was forcing her.
"You loser, you secretly opened a shop. If you have money, you can't even care about your mother's milk. I'll beat you to death, you little bastard."
"Elder Mrs. Lee said that she was going to jump onto Ning Yan, but with so many people watching, she did not believe that this money loser would dare to make a move on her.
Especially this shop ...
She had already inquired about it. The county was a bustling place for business, and in a month's time, there would be a profit of at least 10 taels of silver.
10 taels of silver was a lot of money.
With such a large family of Lao Ning Family, they could only store four to five silver coins a year.
Hmph, no wonder he was so confident. He must have thought about it outside.
A lot of people in the village said that it was too shameless for a dead girl to raise so many men in her yard.
Seeing the Elder Mrs. Lee coming towards him, Ning Yan reached out and grabbed her fist: "I say, you're quite old, you have to be careful, see what you're jumping for, what happens if you fall down?"
Ning Yan was strong, holding onto Elder Mrs. Lee's hand, causing Elder Mrs. Lee to scream in pain and pain.
The louder the howl, the stronger Ning Yan's fist became.
Hearing the Elder Mrs. Lee's wails, Ning Yan continued to speak: "Milk, it's not good for your body to run around, you must be feeling uncomfortable again, I'll let you take good care of yourself, it's just that you've gone crazy from thinking too much."
The louder the Elder Mrs. Lee howled, the more accusations that fell on Ning Yan.
Ning Yan chuckled as she looked at the Elder Mrs. Lee, and said in a small voice: "Milk, I have a lot of strength, your hand bone should have already shattered, are you afraid?"
Elder Mrs. Lee was startled, she pulled out her fist from Ning Yan's hand, and with a slight movement, she felt immense pain. Elder Mrs. Lee's heart ached. She squatted down and patted the dirt on the ground, "Oh god, I don't want to live anymore. This unfilial granddaughter of mine has already crushed this old woman's hand."
"I didn't expect the owner to be such a person."
"That's right, such a person would have to be sent to an official, and his family property would have to be confiscated."
"..." Confess? As expected, it was a matter of Bai Family. As long as the shop was not in Ning Yan's hands, she would not say the words of the Deputy Governor Bai.
The Deputy Governor Bai was also like this, taking small advantages to drill a trap for themselves.
Fortunately, she had nothing to do with Ning Family now, not only did she establish a woman's household, she was even sold by Lao Ning Family.
However, in this era, even if a woman was erected, her body would still be covered in the blood of Ning Family.
A filial son was the heavens.
Fortunately, there was still a Lame Yang she could use. That cripple was afraid of her, so using it a little wouldn't be too much.
As for reputation? Reputation is only useful to women when they are married.
"Milk, didn't you already sell me to the Lame Yang in the next village? Isn't the money earned by marrying a chicken with the chicken, and by marrying off a daughter, wasn't it his own man's? If his granddaughter didn't give him the money, he would become a cripple, so wouldn't he have to move all of the Cripple's family's possessions to Ning Family?
Where did this logic come from?
If that's really the case, who is going to give birth to a son and inherit his bloodline? Just give birth to a daughter and move the things of others to their family."
"That's right, if my daughter-in-law dares to bring things from home to her parents' home, I will divorce her."
"This old woman really can't understand. The married daughter is like spilled water, she actually still wants to monopolize the property of others. This is really ..."
"No, no, no. Quickly find out which village this family is from. In the future, you can't marry this family's daughter, or else everything in the family will be plundered clean."
