Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 188 Chapter 188
Early in the morning, Mu Yu sat in the octagonal pavilion in the main courtyard and listened to the maid telling her about the situation of several big families in Jinzhou. Through this way, she learned about the power distribution in Jinzhou.

The servant girl narrated the story, and the mother-in-law occasionally added it, just like listening to a story, it was quite interesting.

When it comes to the major families in Jinzhou, the Yuan family cannot be avoided.

"I'm not boasting. The Yuan family is one of the best among the merchant families in Jinzhou. No matter what, it's in the top three. If you count the officials and dignitaries, they won't be in the top five, at most the top seven."

Mu Yu was thoughtful, and it was right to choose Yuandang.

Just as the servant girl was about to continue talking, suddenly there was a loud noise outside, as if it was buzzing in a busy city, this sound should not appear in this elegant house.

She frowned slightly and asked, "Does Boss Yuan have any guests today?"

Several servant girls looked at each other in blank dismay, they were serving in the hospital, so naturally they would not understand the affairs of the outer courtyard, especially this kind of matter involving another master.

The woman in charge went out for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, she said, "Miss, the master does have guests today."

"Is it already booked?"

Didn't you say that you have to send posts in advance for guest visits at this time?
"This, it shouldn't be. I was also surprised to see the young man serving beside the master, but I still invited people in. I saw that they were two men about 30 years old. They should be the master's business partners."

"How many people are here?"

"The only thing I saw was two people with six servants."

Mu Yu still felt that something was wrong, how could eight men make this noise?This is a fight?

wrong.

"How long have these people been here?"

Guan Shi thought about it carefully for a while, "Oh, it will take more than half an hour."

That is, these people came more than an hour ago, so why are they making trouble now?Could it be that the talk broke down?
The noise still didn't stop, even though it was hard to hear what was going on in the main courtyard, the noise was loud.

The woman in charge also noticed something was wrong. She had seen the two merchants from a distance, they were very polite, and the servants were also respectful and silent. What other trouble.

"Girl, this movement is not right, why don't I go and see what's going on, come back and talk to the girl."

Mu Yu looked at her, pondered for a while, "You go."

"Yes."

……

Yuandang discussed the details of the wine business with Mu Yu yesterday, and when he came back, he stayed up until midnight to write everything down, added details, and called the housekeeper early the next morning to do things.

As a result, the butler returned within less than a quarter of an hour after taking the order, and brought him some important news.

"My lord, the imperial merchant Zheng Cheng is here to visit."

Yuan Dang was startled, and immediately asked someone to put away his half-eaten breakfast, and went to meet Zheng Cheng with the housekeeper.

This Zheng Cheng only went to cheer for Taoyuan Restaurant three days ago, and he came to the door this day without posting a post first. Could it be that there is something urgent?

He saw Zheng Cheng and his friends in the study room. Zheng Cheng had a calm face, with a slight smile in his eyes.

"I don't know what advice Brother Zheng has when you come to the humble house?"

Zheng Cheng slowly took a sip of the tea, and then said leisurely, "Today's abruptness is because I want to discuss a business with Brother Yuan."

Yuan Dang knew it, it was probably a restaurant business.

That's a good thing overall.

In the huge Jinzhou, only one Taoyuan restaurant is not enough, at least three to five restaurants can be opened, but if so many restaurants are opened, the business of most other restaurants will inevitably be affected, and only one restaurant will have a limited impact, and they will not say anything , if it really opened up too much, and they teamed up to deal with him, and even put pressure on the Yuan family, he might not be able to bear it.

If Zheng Cheng was on the side of Taoyuan Restaurant, together with him and the Yuan family, it would be enough confidence, even half of Jinzhou's businessmen would be helpless.

What's more, businessmen are the ones who judge the situation the most. With Zheng Cheng as the Buddha, they might not dare to target Taoyuan Restaurant at all.

It is still worthwhile to share part of the benefits in exchange for future peace and long-term development.

The most important thing is, because of this, he can get on the line of Zheng Cheng, the first emperor merchant, so why not do it.

It's just that what should be discussed about the distribution of benefits still needs to be discussed, and it cannot be left to Zheng Cheng.

He waited for Zheng Cheng to talk about it, but Zheng Cheng didn't mention it, but talked about an irrelevant topic.

"You run the Taoyuan restaurant business beautifully. I heard that the other owner behind the restaurant is a beautiful girl? I wonder if Mr. Zheng can meet her?"

Yuandang sensed something was wrong, is Zheng Cheng going to bypass him and talk directly to Mu Yu?
No, in his territory, I met him first, and then Mu Yu, even if we were talking about business, he couldn't be completely dismissed, and Zheng Cheng's attitude was worth thinking about, he couldn't guess Zheng Cheng's thoughts for a while.

"Uh...Brother Zheng came here suddenly today, Miss Mu didn't prepare for it, and I'm afraid it's inconvenient to meet guests. If Brother Zheng has something to do, I can send someone to ask."

If you can't figure out Zheng Cheng's purpose, then don't let him see anyone.

Zheng Cheng was not annoyed, he still drank tea leisurely, "Then let's make an appointment another day, three days later will be a good day, how about an appointment in the private room of Taoyuan Restaurant? Let's talk about business and cooperation."

"Okay, then I will take Miss Mu to see Brother Zheng."

Zheng Cheng had no intention of leaving, and Yuandang would not give him an order to evict guests, so the few of them just enjoyed the scenery and chatted leisurely in the courtyard.

Until that loud noise came.

Yuan Dang was shocked, but he quickly realized that it was very rude for such a thing to happen in front of guests of Zheng Cheng's level.

He asked the housekeeper to accompany Zheng Cheng and the others first, and then he quickly took people to solve the problem.

"Yuan did not entertain well, please forgive me, brother Zheng."

"It's okay, let's go."

Yuan Dang left in a hurry, so he didn't notice the playful smiles on the faces of Zheng Cheng and his friend.

……

Yuan Dang took a group of servants and servants to solve the problem, and bumped into Sui's group on the way.

As soon as the husband and wife met, the noisy voice stopped immediately.

The two looked at each other, as expected of a husband and wife, they both looked like they hadn't slept well.

Yuan Dang glanced at the lineup behind Sui, frowned, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

It's fine for him to let her mess around in the back house, but now she's openly making trouble here, affecting his business and friends, it's becoming more and more lawless...

When Sui saw Yuan Dang, she was guilty at first, but when she saw Yuan Dang's disgusted appearance, she became angry again.

Yuan Dang rushed back to entertain Zheng Cheng, and said impatiently, "What are you doing?"

The Sui family was even more furious, "What am I going to do? Don't you know? I'm here to welcome your outer room home! The Yuan family is a big family after all, how can you let men keep women outside, and be shameless, no Those who knew thought I was jealous! I don’t want this face, but I still want it!”

Yuan Dang understood what she meant and was also angry.

Sui made trouble for him to embarrass him in front of Zheng Cheng, and even arranged his relationship with Mu Yu to ruin his two business partners at once, which is of course unacceptable.

"If you continue to arrange things indiscriminately, we will get along with each other."
