Part-time female officer of the rebirth spiritualist

Chapter 386: Fighting and Winning (2)
"In Shangyanshang, since Baoqingzhai has released the news that it will be exchanged, we will naturally be able to compete fairly. When the Xia family loses, can Jinghou still call the door to stand up for them?" The man raised his eyebrows , with a little pride, said: "Although the government of our country has lost the heyday of its predecessors, it is not something Jinghou can bully at will."

"But behind Jinghou's mansion, after all, there are the empress and the eldest prince... Is it really good to oppose them like this?" The chubby young man glanced at him with a little worry, and said in a low voice.

The man paused, then smiled inscrutablely, and murmured: "It's just a matter of time."

"What?" The chubby young man didn't hear it clearly, and looked up at him with some doubts.He smiled, pointed at the chessboard and said, "I won." After speaking, he stood up and waved to a young servant standing outside the pavilion.The servant stepped forward respectfully, and the man whispered something to him before sending him away.

The chubby young man looked at the chessboard and realized that he had indeed lost. He couldn't help shaking his head helplessly, "I can't beat you every time." He looked up and saw the man ordering the servant, so he closed his mouth again and waited for the servant to leave. Finally, he opened his mouth and said, "Mingxiu, are you busy?"

Zhou Mingxiu sat across from him again, smiled and said, "Find someone to redeem Baoqingzhai. Didn't I just say that I want to compete fairly with the Xia family."

"Hey, I hope you win." The chubby young man grinned.

"Brother Chengbao said auspicious words." Zhou Mingxiu's eyes flashed with determination, and he raised his chin, "Another game?"

The chubby young man nodded happily, "Happy to accompany you."

At the same time, the Patriarch of the Xia family was also bowing to bid farewell to Jinghou, "I won't disturb Lord Hou's elegant mood, and I will visit Lord Hou some other day."

The fat-hearted Jinghou's eyes were glued to the face of a stunning maid sent by Patriarch Xia, and he waved his hand indifferently and said, "Well, let's go."

Seeing this, Patriarch Xia gave the maid a warning look, then saluted Jinghou, turned around and left with a smile.But he was disdainful in his heart, Jinghou behaved solemnly outside, very majestic.But in his heart, he is actually greedy for flowers and lust, and regards money as his life.However, it was precisely because of this that he was able to curry favor with the Jinghou Mansion, and thus get on line with the empress and the eldest prince in the palace.

However, Master Hou's appetite has been getting bigger and bigger in the past few years, Patriarch Xia was already thinking in his heart whether he could directly bypass Jinghou and catch up with the eldest prince.Who would have thought that this time the imperial business election would be squeezed out by a little-known Zhao Ji.The Gong family, which was already in the bag, was swallowed up by the damn Yang family.Losing at both ends, even if Patriarch Xia feels aggrieved, he can't lose Jinghou's backer at this time.

"Hmph, Zhao Ji! When I take down Baoqingzhai, I'll settle it with you!" With a sneer in his heart, Patriarch Xia had a very good plan in mind.The location of Baoqingzhai is very good, so it was taken down and turned into an incense shop, which exclusively sells Longyanxiang——Longyanxiang used to be reserved for the emperor, as long as it bears this name, the business will definitely be booming.And those things in Zhao's store, his incense shop in Xia's family, will be available soon.

Thinking of this, Patriarch Xia flashed a hint of greed.Those novel formulas and the qualifications of the imperial merchants are only worthy of the Xia family, so what is the Zhao family who came from a remote area!
It's just that sometimes feeling good about yourself isn't a good thing.

"What did you say? Baoqingzhai was taken by Zhao Jidui?" Patriarch Xia stared at an elderly steward in disbelief, a white porcelain teacup was smashed to the ground with a slap, and fell apart, "How is this possible! The second son of Duke Zhou's mansion sent someone to negotiate the price, but the boss of Baoqingzhai didn't let him go. Why did he suddenly give it to Zhao Ji?"
