Chapter 292

Talk about big business?

Zheng Lai didn't even know that his family had some big business that required the presence of the master to discuss it, so he glanced at the few people in front of him warily.

But this smile is embarrassing no matter how you look at it, but it also made Zheng Lai feel the other party's determination to see the master's family.

To make such an arrogant person smile at a small manager like him, he must have been forced to do nothing.

The Wubao of the Xu Family is divided into two parts, inside and outside. People outside the outer castle can move around freely, but it is very difficult to enter the inner castle.

Although Zheng Lai is a market supervisor and an old man from Xujiazhuang, he has no right to bring these outsiders in.

At most, it is to help inform.

Seeing Zheng Lai's silence, Jia Shang exchanged a glance with the young man behind him, took two steps forward, came to Zheng Lai's side, and secretly stuffed a bag into his hand.

Zheng Lai didn't pay much attention at first, thinking that they were selling some rare items. After all, he had encountered such things a lot. There were always some merchants who wanted to sell some rare items to their owners, but those who could really be liked by the owners were pitifully rare.

Zheng Lai subconsciously weighed the bag, felt it was heavy, touched it, was startled, and hurriedly returned the bag of suspected gold cakes.

His complexion also sank, "I'm afraid you don't know what is being supervised?"

Seeing Zheng Lai returning the things, Jia Shang and others realized that something was wrong.

I only heard Zheng Lai sternly shouted: "Bribery, fraud, forced buying and selling in the market, etc., are all handled by the subordinates. In case of such violations, no matter what kind of imperial businessman you are, you will be beaten out. , never enter Xujiazhuang!"

Merchant Jia's face paled immediately, and he hurried forward to explain that he was not offering bribes, but just wanted to ask Zheng Lai to help pass on a message.

The more he spoke, the more anxious he was, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and he looked really pitiful.

Seeing him raising his hand, Zheng Lai was about to apologize, but his heart softened, and he raised his hand to stop Jia Shang's behavior.

"It's just a message, you just say it, and you still need to give me this?" Zheng Lai glanced at the bag, shook his head, and educated a few people, this method is not good.

Several people hurriedly agreed, and they were relieved to see Zheng Lai's expression calmed down, and he no longer wanted to kick himself and others out of Xujiazhuang.

"You just wait, the master's family should be back in a few days, I'll go and ask for you." Zheng Lai instructed.

Seeing the expressions of thanks on several people's faces, he waved his hand to signal them not to make such foolishness, and left with a calm face.

A few people were left standing in front of the hotel gate, looking at each other with uncertain expressions.

Zheng Lai didn't lie to these people, counting the days when Xu Yue's brother and sister Xiu Mu returned to the village, he came to the Xu family's mansion and asked Xiao Junmei to help him with a message.

What Zheng said was: "The group of people didn't look like ordinary merchants. They said they wanted to stay to meet the owner's house to discuss big business, but they didn't see what goods they had prepared. There were only a few carts of Yuzhou specialty citrus, and most of them were rotten. , the people in our factory have to pick and choose to eat when they buy it at a low price, and Xiao Fubao and I calculated the price, and we couldn't lower the transportation fee they brought in."

Fubao is Xu Nai's younger sister, about the same age as Xu Yue, a 12-year-old girl who is quite good at arithmetic, and there is no one in Zhuangzi who is her opponent except Junmei, whom Xu Yue and Wang Pingping taught by hand.

Zheng Lai said that she settled the account, Junmei nodded and believed it.

Zheng Lai said again: "A fool would not do such a loss-making business, and seeing that these people lived in the hotel for more than half a month, the purpose was only to meet the owner's family, the more I think about it, the more I feel that these people want to see you." The purpose of the master is not simple."

"I pretended to agree to them, calmed them down for a while, and then told little brother A Jian that Buquying secretly strengthened the guards on them. Once they left the village, they would be stopped. "

Zheng Lai looked worried, for fear that these people would harm the master's family and do something like assassination.

After all, the Xu family has developed rapidly over the years, and there are not a few people who are secretly jealous. If they can't figure it out, it is not impossible to be stupid to do such assassination.

Seeing Zheng Lai's worried look, Junmei really wanted to tell him that he was a little too worried. If these people could walk up to the young lady, as long as they showed a little killing intent, the young lady could solve it by herself without their hands.

But Zheng Lai should be praised for being able to think of so many things.

Junmei nodded, and said with a faint smile: "Guard Zheng, you have done a good job. I will help you write down this amount in this year's performance appraisal. You can go back first. I will go in and ask Miss San to see what she says. I'll give you an answer within two hours."

The work efficiency in Xujiazhuang is extremely high, coupled with the calibration of watch time, in the past, it took a day or two for everyone to reply by default, but now it has changed to one or two hours.

Efficiency has been improved, and productivity has also been greatly improved, which also makes the entire Xujiawubao seem to be busy all the time.

When outsiders first arrived in Xujiazhuang, they really couldn't adapt to the fast pace here.

Zheng Lai nodded happily and went back to wait for the news.

He didn't wait long, and just returned to his office and sat there for 5 minutes, when Wubao sent someone over and asked him to take Jiashang and his party into Neizhuang, Xu Yue wanted to see them.
.
The spacious and bright mansion is too quiet because there are no servants.

Shangshang Jia and others followed a servant named Ada, and just entered the house they had been looking forward to for half a month, when they felt a silent pressure.

It was so quiet, too quiet to breathe loudly.

It was completely different from the Xu family's mansion where there were many servants in the imagination. There was not even a rockery and flowers here, but some vegetables and papaya were planted at the foot of the courtyard wall.

The deep courtyard is entered one after another. The windows are all bright and transparent glass, and the bright light penetrates into the courtyard, reducing the depression of many deep houses.

After passing through a corridor, the dazzling sunlight casts straight down from the wide patio above, which is very eye-catching.

A platform stands under the patio, open on all sides, and you can clearly see the tables and chairs, tea and water inside, and a sweet smell wafts over.

The young man behind Merchant Jia looked up and caught a glimpse of a plate of bright red melons cut into triangles?

It should be a melon, right?He thought uncertainly.

At this moment, the servant leading the way signaled them to stop, walked forward a few steps, came to the house behind the pavilion, and knocked on the half-closed door.

"Third Miss, Eldest Young Master, Merchant Jia and the others are here."

The young man behind Merchant Jia raised his eyebrows slightly, the young lady was in front and the young master was behind, the Xu family's family style is really strange.

Could it be that the Xu family is actually headed by a woman like a female general, as rumored?

With some curiosity, everyone looked up at the closed door.

The girl's clear and gentle voice first came from inside, "Well, I got it."

Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps came, and the door opened with a creak. Two figures, one tall and one short, a man and a woman, appeared in front of everyone in the courtyard.
