Chapter 223 Smoke is rising from the ancestral graves
As usual, all the food on the table was eaten up.
Five people, ten dishes, and they ate all the dishes.
Mu Guanchu was interesting, he also set his eyes on Fang Fu, Luo Liu and their table, because those dishes were also made by Zhao Susu.
However, Fang Fu was very smart. When he saw Luo Liu finished eating, he poured all the dishes into his own bowl. While Mu Guanchu was rolling his eyes, he put the food into his mouth with a smile!
That fool Xiangfang rushed to find out the news, but he didn't know that only by following the young master can he have delicious food!
Zhao Susu always felt that there was something wrong with Pei Mingqiu's eyes when he left.
He seemed to be even more silent, with a lot of worries deep in his eyes, and his whole temperament seemed to be more gloomy.
Even Zhao Susu noticed it, so Mu Guanchu naturally noticed it too. Seeing that his eyes seemed to get even redder, Mu Guanchu didn't say anything. He just said goodbye to Zhao Susu with a smile, winked at Meng Yu, and patted his chest imperceptibly.
That was to remind Meng Yu that the contract was there and he must remember to get the medicine he wanted.
Meng Yu nodded.
Mu Guanchu immediately walked away happily like a big dog that had been comforted.
Three days later, Meng Yu chose to deliver the goods in an empty room. In the originally empty room, several large wooden boxes were lined up in a row.
Meng Yu had originally piled up two small dark rooms with pills, but she cleared them all out at once, including the medicine she had prepared in the past three days.
Looking at those big wooden boxes, once they were opened, the black bean-like pills appeared before my eyes.
The corners of Pei Mingqiu's mouth twitched.
There was not a moment when he felt that he was so rich now!
He prepared 30,000 taels of silver notes.
The original price set by Meng Yu was six thousand three hundred taels. When Mu Guanchu wrote the contract, he doubled it, which was twelve thousand six hundred taels. But no matter what Pei Mingqiu said, Meng Yu only accepted ten thousand taels.
As for the three thousand inferior pills, she said that they were given as a gift and she would not accept a penny for them.
The medicinal materials were prepared by Xiao Niu, and she made them herself. They are training products. It is a business with no capital investment and she makes pure profit.
Little Loach said that Uncle Pei also had good deeds, so he was a good person, and she was willing to give him more!
Pei Mingqiu's men carried the box away, and the whole process was almost silent.
He is very well-trained and walks silently.
Meng Yu put the ten thousand taels of silver into the ugly purse and waved goodbye to Pei Mingqiu.
Pei Mingqiu's eyes fell deeply on Meng Yu's face. This child not only felt friendly, but was also a boy who gave away money. Was he his lucky star?
He said, "Uncle will leave Ningshan County tomorrow. Thank you for the medicine! If there is a chance in the future, uncle will take you to Beijing to play!"
Meng Yu smiled and said, "Okay!"
Pei Mingqiu actually felt a little reluctant.
But, he had to leave.
Mu Guanchu also came to pick up the goods on time.
What he was given was rather shabby, just a box, and a small one at that.
However, Mu Guanchu was already very satisfied, and he also gave 10,000 taels. The contract stated that the goods were worth more than 20,000 taels, so he paid 10,000 taels first, which was not much.
Mu Guanchu also left on the third day. The accounts here were clear, the business was booming, and Manager Feng was capable, so he didn't need to stay for long and had to inspect the business elsewhere.
On the day Mu Guanchu left, Meng Yu handed 20,000 taels of silver to Zhao Susu.
Zhao Susu had been so frightened that she was numb, but now she was surprisingly calm: "Ayu, where did you get so much money?"
Meng Yu said calmly: "I made money from business!"
Zhao Susu: “…”
She had been doing business for two or three years, but there was no way she could earn that much in just a few days.
It seems that she is not working hard enough!
Otherwise, she would be left far behind by Ayu sooner or later.
"You hold the flowers, I don't need them right now!"
"I don't need it either. Why don't you use it to open another business?"
"Keep some for yourself!"
"I still have some! And I make money easily! Uncle Mu still owes me more than ten thousand taels!"
She didn't have the courage to tell Zhao Susu that she also owned a shop and a business.
Zhao Susu was numb again. She took it calmly and said, "Including these 20,000 taels, you have already given me 31,300 taels."
Meng Yu smiled and said, "Then mother should expand her business. With money in hand, it will be easier to do things. Mother, do whatever you want to do. I believe that one day mother can catch up with uncle and even surpass him!"
Zhao Susu laughed when she heard this.
Ayu really thinks highly of her.
Her main business is still in the small county town of Ningshan County.
But the Luo family is the richest family in Jiazhou.
Not to mention anything else, there are several caravans alone.
On her side, she had just established a team, which was not yet mature and did not even have a route.
Even if she works hard for another ten years, she may not be able to catch up, right?
After all, she is working hard, and her brothers are not idle either.
However, Ayu said that she couldn't show her weakness.
She smiled and tapped Meng Yu's nose: "Okay, then mother will work hard!"
Two days later, Zhao Susu received another post, but this post was not for her, but for Meng Yu.
It was sent by the Yan family.
In the post, Meng Yu was invited to come over.
The Yan family even sent a carriage over.
Because of the business cooperation with the Yan family, Zhao Susu and the Yan family were also familiar with each other. She asked: "What does your wife want to ask A Yu for?"
The old woman who came looked respectful: "Madam is very anxious, but she didn't say what it is!"
Zhao Susu asked Luo Liu to call Meng Yu over.
Meng Yu was looking at Luo Yu's injuries.
After she used the top-grade golden medicine, Luo Yu's wounds recovered at an amazing speed. The big hole that the plum blossom dart had pierced into her shoulder had healed and new pink flesh had grown. The poison in her body was also cleared. She was so bored that she wanted to get back to Zhao Susu as soon as possible.
Hearing that someone was looking for him, Meng Yu got on a carriage and went to Yan's house.
The carriage was going fast.
Meng Yu was very confused. What was so urgent?
When I got off the carriage at the Yan family's house, I immediately saw the maid next to Madam Yan standing on tiptoe waiting. When she saw her, she hurried over and said, "Miss Meng, hurry up and follow me!"
Meng Yu hurried to catch up.
When they arrived at the backyard, the nanny explained the situation. It turned out to be Yan Qin's illness.
Speaking of which, this is related to what happened a few days ago!
A major event occurred in Ningshan County.
Ningshan County produced a top candidate in the imperial examination.
You know, the academy exam is a gathering of students from a state, held twice every three years. The number of people from Jiazhou who take the exam each time is no less than 2,000, but less than 150 can pass and become a scholar. Only six or seven out of a hundred people can pass.
The Shang Dynasty had nine states, and each state had four prefectures, one prefecture had seven prefectures, and one prefecture had ten counties. That was more than 200 counties, and some counties might not even produce a scholar.
But this case actually happened in Ningshan County. How could Ningshan County not become famous?
Li was so happy that she almost went crazy.
His son got the first place in the imperial examination again, which really made the Cao family very happy.
What? Still not sure who it is?
Who else could it be except his son?
Since he was born in Ningshan County, it must be his son. The first place in the county examination and the first place in the prefectural examination were both his sons. Who in the whole Ningshan County could compare to his son?
