Chapter 288 Regeneration twists and turns
After a few days, several states and counties in the prosperous Central Plains got the news.

The court needs people to transport a batch of military supplies to the border.

Although the profit of transporting military supplies is not very high, it can build a good relationship with the people in the army. Although the degree of danger is also there, it is not very high. After all, no matter how bold these bandits and bandits are, they dare not rob the court of military rations.

If they dared to do this, it would be treason. Although the imperial court is now declining, it is not something these bandits and bandits can resist.

But even so, some big businessmen generally will not refuse to compete for this opportunity. They don't need to transport goods at the border, put money on their faces, and don't want to have anything to do with the army at the border.

Just like these big families, they generally don’t participate. They don’t need to use this method to establish a good relationship with the military. They already have a lot of power. Suspicion, suspicion that they are going to collude with the generals at the border, so that it will not be beneficial at that time, but will cause a lot of trouble.

These small businessmen wanted to use this method to plate gold, but the court was not at ease with them.

It's a middle-level family, and they are afraid that something will go wrong, so they dare not take on this kind of task.

Now the imperial treasury is not full, border wars have been going on for years, and the court is also suffering from serious internal troubles, often needing to send troops to suppress it, coupled with the corruption of court officials, the desolation and immorality of the authorities, the treasury must have been empty long ago, to these businessmen The profits are even lower.

Businessmen come here for profit, as long as there is interest, they dare to do anything, but if there is no interest, everyone is too lazy to join in.

An Xiu'er also got the news this time. She was not interested in this kind of opportunity at first, but after hearing that it was transported to the Mu family army this time, she couldn't help but have two thoughts in her mind.

I also heard that there were not many people participating this time, and she also wanted to win the right to transport the military supplies this time. Although Zhang Zhenan had something to do with it, the most important thing was that everyone was responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Since The imperial court needs someone to deliver military supplies, and she has this ability, so it doesn't hurt to help.

Even if the imperial court is corrupt, the people at the frontier are not at fault. If you can help deliver supplies, if you can help the soldiers at the frontier and make them win the battle, it will be considered a merit for her. Besides, doing this kind of thing, you can Gaining a good reputation as a benevolent businessman can be regarded as a bit of an advantage.

After An Xiu'er had made up her mind, she asked people to start preparing supplies. She planned to take the opportunity of helping the imperial court to deliver supplies and donate a little by herself. do well.

While preparing the goods, An Xiu'er sent someone to negotiate with the imperial court, but before she could get in touch with anyone from the imperial court, the people she sent were stopped.

When An Xiu'er heard the news, she was a little confused. Now that she controls the power in the family, who else would dare to stop the people she sent?
After thinking for a while, she thought of someone.

Two days ago, in the Zhang family, a man named Zhang Zhenyu came back from the capital. He said he was Zhang Zhenan's cousin, and he was relatively close to him. An Xiu'er was not familiar with him, and felt that he was a little too familiar, so she didn't pay much attention to him.

This person seems to be familiar with the elders of the Zhang family, and those elders also liked him very much, and specially introduced him to her, saying that he came back from the capital, not only full of knowledge, but also in a place like the capital where fish and dragons are mixed. , and also managed the Zhang family's business very well.

At that time, An Xiu'er had a vague idea of ​​what these elders were thinking, but she didn't take him seriously. The power in her hands can't be taken easily by anyone who says to take it. It's an idle matter, but she didn't expect that he would come to make trouble for her.

An Xiu'er likes to gong face to face, and she doesn't bother to guess his intentions, so she directly invites him over.

"I've met my sister-in-law, but I don't know why my sister-in-law called my younger brother here today?" Zhang Zhenyu saluted An Xiu'er very politely when he saw her.

"I think you should know what I asked you to do." An Xiu'er said, "I sent someone to negotiate with the imperial court, but you stopped the person I sent?"

"Sister-in-law means that you have someone to negotiate with the imperial court about the delivery of military supplies?" Zhang Zhenyu asked gently.

"En." An Xiu'er nodded.

Zhang Zhenyu said, "It was indeed I who did it."

An Xiu'er looked up at him, her sharp eyes swept towards him, Zhang Zhenyu quickly said: "Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to fight against you, it's just because the Zhang family has ancestral precepts, and they can't have anything to do with the court. I know my sister-in-law must have forgotten, so I sent someone to stop those people."

"You have a reason." An Xiuer sneered, and said, "Have you ever been to the border? Do you know how cold the border is at the moment? Do you know that the spears in this cold weather are like ice? After a while, the soldiers at the border will have to starve for a few more days.”

"What does this have to do with us?" Zhang Zhenyu looked slightly disdainful.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, so why has nothing to do with us?" An Xiu'er glanced at Zhang Zhenyu, and said: "The soldiers at the border gave up their lives for the safety of the people, and we just sent people to deliver military supplies. Since you still dare to stop !"

"Sister-in-law, I think you don't know that this matter is not just my idea!" Zhang Zhenyu raised his eyes and glanced at An Xiu'er, and said, "Little brother, I just came back, so I don't have such great energy. This matter is an order from the elders. .”

"The Council of Elders? Hehe." An Xiu'er sneered again and again, she slapped the table and said, "Stop scaring me with the Council of Elders."

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. Although our Zhang family is a big family, it is still a businessman in essence. A businessman seeks profit. Shipping military supplies is just your desire to serve the country, and there is no interest at all! What's more, sister-in-law, although you are in charge of Zhang family business, but you are only in charge of it, this family is not yours!"

Zhang Zhenyu's voice was still gentle, but An Xiu'er heard a lot of ridicule and disdain from it, she smiled coldly and said, "You're right!"

"I have paid so much for the Zhang family. I just said that I want to deliver a military supply. You come against me like this. How much money have I earned for the Zhang family?" An Xiu'er was a little angry. She did not expect that the elders would Some people would actually listen to rumors and embarrass her about these trivial matters.

Zhang Zhenyu explained: "It's not that the elders are embarrassing my sister-in-law, but we are businessmen!"

An Xiu'er raised the corners of her lips to sneer, but Zhang Zhenyu said without speaking, "Sister-in-law called my younger brother over this time, is there anything else? If not, then I'll leave first."

An Xiu'er glanced at him coldly, Zhang Zhenyu stood up and bid farewell, leaving the flower hall.

After he left, An Xiu'er held her forehead and sighed repeatedly, why are there so many idiots in this family?It was hard for that idiot Zhang Zhenping to give up playing tricks on the family business, and now there is another Zhang Zhenyu, is this right so touching?

Or did he think that this would bring him down?
An Xiu'er knew that he was the one who did this, but he even brought in a Presbyterian Church to oppress her.

What's so great about the Presbyterian Church?A group of people who eat dry food and like to point fingers, An Xiu'er has long disliked them.

Of course, they also disliked An Xiu'er. An Xiu'er was a strict housekeeper. Every time they tried to tamper with the accounts, she would find out. Because of this, she offended many people, not to mention, she just The daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, the man is still dead, and they disdain such a person as the head of the family.

Originally, it was because the members of the Zhang family were incompetent and no one could replace her. Now that Zhang Zhenyu came, this was a great opportunity.

"Ma'am, is there another moth in the Zhang family?" Ban Xia came over with a bowl of soup, and asked when seeing An Xiu'er's angry face.

Now she is always thinking about An Xiu'er, but has no affection for the Zhang family.

"En." An Xiu'er nodded, and said: "You also know about this matter, I wanted to help the imperial court transport a horse of military supplies, but these idiots also came to stop me!"

"Ma'am, don't bother with these trivial matters. You don't know if you are angry with these people." Ban Xia said, "Come on, have a drink of soup, and then go to the old guys of the Zhang family to discuss theories."

After hearing Ban Xia's words, Fu Momo came over and scolded: "What old fellow? No wonder the second lady found a chance to punish you last time. I think your mouth is getting more and more tricky now."

"I was in our own yard, and I didn't say that in other places." Ban Xia said.

"That's not okay." Fu Momo taught: "If you develop such a habit, sometimes you will blurt out before you have time to think about it. This is not good, and you have to change it in the future."

"Forget it." An Xiu'er knew that Ban Xia was doing it for her own good, so she couldn't bear to blame her more.

"Ma'am, you are too tolerant of this girl Banxia." Fu Momo said casually.

"I'm very tolerant to you all." An Xiu'er said.

Nanny Fu shook her head helplessly, sighed, and stopped talking.

"Ban Xia, you can't be like this in the future, look, Madam Fu doesn't want to care about you anymore, as a human being, you still have to have basic manners." An Xiu'er said.

When you wear a mask, you have to wear it from head to tail until the mask is integrated into your bones, so that people can no longer find their former self, so they can't find your original appearance.

"I know, come, you drink the soup." Ban Xia put the soup in An Xiu'er's hand.

An Xiu'er took a sip lightly, and then asked Madam Fu, "Did Tuan Tuan fall asleep?"

Madam Fu nodded and replied, "I'll wait for him to fall asleep before coming out to see Madam, Madam, do you think you want to find another special nun for the young master?"
