Chapter 440 Clean
After the brother and sister discussed it, they sent two groups of people out of the house, one to Moli Town, and the other to inquire in Kyoto City to see which house in the city the Zhang family was related to, and then to deal with the family of three. place to go.

"Brother, why don't you arrange for them to work in the house?"

Zhou Yan thought about it. In fact, their family had very few secrets in the mansion, but there were a lot of secrets in Jinjia Village, so neither of them planned to arrange for the family of three to go to Jinjia Village.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Let Wu Ma ask them what they want later. If they want to stay, find something for them to do in the house. If they don't want to, give them some money and let them go out. Find your own way.”

After discussing this matter, the brother and sister discussed the wine produced in the winery. The wild grapes in the mountains were particularly good this year. Their family harvested a lot and brewed much more wine than last year. Some of them were left behind. The emperor came over to reward his ministers, and with the rest, the brother and sister planned to open a wine shop to sell wine.

In fact, the wine produced by the winery last year received a lot of praise in Kyoto City last year due to the reward from the emperor. Almost officials of the fifth grade and above have drank their wine.

The military generals always felt that the wine was too soft and lacked energy when they drank it. On the other hand, the civil servants and the ladies from various back houses felt good after drinking it, so they had no worries about selling the wines they made this year.

What the brother and sister want to discuss is what price should be set.

In the end, the two settled on twenty taels of silver per catty.

However, the price that was set still had to be informed to the emperor. Who asked the emperor to take the lion's share of the winery? This was because Zhou Yan went directly to the palace to meet the emperor.

When Zhou Yan arrived, the emperor was discussing matters with several cabinet ministers and had no time to see Zhou Yan, so Zhou Yan told Eunuch Mao about the matter.

When Eunuch Mao heard the price set by the brother and sister, he glared.

"Prince Zhou, the price you ordered is too low. Wine is simply not affordable for ordinary people, and those who can afford it are not short of money. You listen to our family and just order fifty taels." One pound.”

"Then... then listen to Eunuch Mao."

"That's it."

After Zhou Yan agreed on the price with Eunuch Mao, he left the palace. Zhou Yan was in a good mood all the way.

In the imagination of the two brothers and sisters, they also felt that twenty taels of silver was not a high price, but they could not settle on forty or fifty taels. It would be up to the emperor to think of them. The two of them had originally started their business in the past.

They were afraid that if they set a high price now, the emperor would have thoughts about them, so the two of them set an ordinary price and then raised the issue to the emperor.

But he didn't expect to be picked up by Eunuch Mao, but it was the same. Eunuch Mao was the one who served the emperor. What he said basically represented what the emperor meant.

After Zhou Yan returned home, he told his sister the price set by Mao Eunuch. Zhou Yu didn't think the fifty taels set by Mao Eunuch was high. She felt that the wine she brewed was worth the price.

Who made her home-brewed wine the only one in Dazhou?

As soon as the brother and sister left the house this morning, Zhou Bang felt that there was nothing good to do in the house, and his children were not here, so he took Lian back to Jinjia Village, and came back after it was dark.

As soon as I came back, I saw a pair of children.

"Daughter, would you like to go out and have fun today?"

"Dad, this is so fun. How about you come with me next time and our whole family will go."

"I'll forget it, I'd better stay at home." Ms. Lian was a little motion sick, so it was fine for a short ride, but she would be a little uncomfortable if she took a carriage for a long time. After hearing this, Zhou Yu didn't force her mother to go with her.

However, Zhou Bang was moved. He thought that if his children went out again next time, he would go with them. Staying in the house was not a problem anyway.

The family of four hadn't chatted for long before Bai Sheng came back.

Bai Sheng knew that the two of them were going to inspect Zhuangzi. To be honest, he wanted to go, but thinking that he would end next year, he decided not to do it.

After the family finished eating, Zhou Yu talked about the eldest son of the Zhang family whom he met in Moli Town. Bai Sheng was also sitting and listening. The brother and sister thought that he would enter the officialdom in the future, and there were some things they still needed to know.

Therefore, the brother and sister are used to talking about outside matters at night. They can talk about it together when Bai Sheng is around so that he can learn from it.

Bai Sheng knew the good intentions of the two, so he did not refuse. Basically, the family would sit together for half an hour after dinner and chat about outside affairs. This has become a family habit.

Moli Town is too small, so few people from the various aristocratic families in Kyoto City pay attention to the Zhang family in a small town. If the brother and sister hadn't met this time, they probably wouldn't have known there was such a family.

But it's useless to say anything now. The people who were sent haven't come back yet, and the people who inquired about the Zhang family in Kyoto City today didn't get any information at all. This is very strange.

After the family chatted, they took a rest. Two days later, the people who went to Moli Town to inquire about the Zhang family came back.

According to those who inquired back, the Zhang family were dedicated businessmen and had little business elsewhere. They just opened many shops and several banks in the town.

The town is only so big, and the richest man in the town is really not worthy of attention in Kyoto City, so neither brother nor sister paid much attention to the Zhang family's wealth.

It's just that there is nothing else about the Zhang family, except that Mr. Zhang is a bit lustful and snatches away a few girls every year. Most of the girls he snatches back are given the title of aunt.

But none of the girls who entered the house lived for more than three years, and most of them died after one or two years.

Zhou Yu was sure that the eldest son of the Zhang family must be prone to domestic violence, and the deaths of those girls must have something to do with him.

But now they have no evidence, so they have to ask people to investigate again.

Zhou Yan had more to think about. He had paid attention to the eldest son of the Zhang family. Although he looked rough on the outside, he was actually a delicate person on the inside. When he was the head of the Bai Mansion, although he was doing serious business.

But sometimes it is inevitable to make a bit of windfall. This is what everyone doing business will do.

The information returned by the people sent to investigate was too clean, and Zhou Yan didn't believe it.

"Have you checked carefully?"

"I've already checked it out about Prince Hui. We asked a lot of people in the town and they all said the same thing."

"Brother, do you suspect something?"

"Don't you think this business place is too clean?"

Zhou Yuzhi has been a good and law-abiding citizen since she started doing business. Naturally, she doesn't know how people in this dynasty do business, but Zhou Yan does.
