Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 167
Obviously, Master Xie lowered the price to attract many customers, but because he didn't make money, the shopkeeper and the waiter in the shop were lazy, and they were not as active as before.

If things go on like this, before the price is too low to lose money, Xie's business will plummet.

If a guest is neglected, how can he come again?

Mr. Xie has just taken a concubine, and he is used to being superior, but occasionally he calls the shopkeeper to ask questions, and he will not let go of his attitude and come to the shop to really have a look.

Even if you come in person, you will be surrounded by everyone, where can you see this?

Xie Yanniang sighed: "Even so, the Xie family is still the only one."

Not to mention the backing of the fifteen princes, the Xie Mansion's management over the years by several generations is not so easy to overwhelm.

Although the long-standing reputation of an old shop has been consumed, most people will still go for it.

Ruan Jingxin pointed to the back of the shop, and said again: "The Xie family bought the two back shops, and they are planning to open them up and use them as warehouses."

Xie Yanniang looked from a distance, and the two shops were two-story yards, not a small place.

Open up two warehouses, can so many goods be stored?
Is it...

An idea flashed in Xie Yanniang's mind, and she said in a daze, "Could it be that he is crazy, acting so recklessly?"

Mr. Xie wants to dominate the family, which is no longer an idea just now.He used to live a timid life, but now that he has the prince as his backer, he has let go of his hands and feet, and is ready to roll up his sleeves and do a big job.

The first thing is to block the source of goods.

Everything has arrived at the Xie family's warehouse, and no one else can buy it. Where else can I go except to the Xie family's shop?

After other merchants heard about it, they were afraid they would hate Master Xie to death.

Cutting off people's wealth is undoubtedly killing others.

Master Xie is too bold, isn't he afraid that those merchants will join forces and attack them in groups?
The Fifteenth Prince is not a kind person, he especially loves feathers.If Mr. Xie got into trouble, and it was too late for him to avoid it, how could he help?

Xie Yanniang frowned, wondering: "He doesn't seem like such an adventurous person, why did he act like this all of a sudden?"

"It's like a slave who has been suppressed for too long, and suddenly one day he can stand up and become a master, and his mood will be different." Ruan Jingxin knocked on the door again, and the carriage accelerated and left the street quickly.

She heard something different, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Who did your lord do something to seduce Master Xie?"

"Qiu Niang is always so smart." Ruan Jingxin looked at her deeply with his eyes under the mask, and said with deep meaning: "When the wind blows by the pillow, it's hard for a man not to be in a good mood."

Xie Yanniang was even more surprised: "The new concubine of the Xie family was sent by the adults?"

Ruan Jingxin shook her head: "To deal with someone like Mr. Xie, I don't need to use the people I have in hand. However, it is enough for someone who is interested in shouting a few words by that concubine's side."

Obviously, that young concubine is a caring person.

After hearing it, he felt hesitant, so he was willing to follow Mr. Xie who was so much older, and even helped to make suggestions, so that he could find a good position in the mansion.

It is true, Mr. Xie is greedy for new things, and the concubine offered another plan to spoil her to no end, Mrs. Xie is afraid that she will feel uncomfortable.

But the higher the concubine climbs now, the more miserable she will be when she falls down.

Xie Yanniang has no sympathy for this concubine at all, she originally approached Mr. Xie with a calculating heart, and offered advice for her own benefit, but now that she stumbled, it was just self-inflicted, after all, it is not so easy to take advantage of.

She looked at the prototype of the warehouse that was being built in full swing behind the shop, made a calculation in her heart, and sighed secretly.

It is estimated that Mr. Xie suffered heavy losses this time, and I just hope that he will not bet all his wealth on this.

But with Ruan Jingxin's method, it might be impossible to prevent him from falling hard.

Xie Yanniang hesitated for a moment, and finally opened her mouth: "My lord, why..."

Do you want to bother to deal with Master Xie?

Such a small person is really not worth the Regent's hands.

"Miss Xie, this is my sincerity." Ruan Jingxin said in a low voice without further explanation, but Xie Yanniang understood.

She is regarded as someone who has taken refuge under Ruan Jingxin's command, so she has worries about the future, so this big man made a move?
He used this to teach Master Xie a lesson, and made the Xie family sluggish. For a long time, he didn't have the heart to harass him. If Ruan Jingxin came to help at this time and took control of the Xie family's life, how would he dare to act presumptuously in the future?
It really killed two birds with one stone, and made Xie Yanniang feel comfortable all over.

It is said that to win the hearts of the people, the regent's methods in this matter are too high.

There is no publicity, or it is like giving alms to make her surrender.Instead, he finished all these silently, and then told her lightly, without any intention of asking for credit.

Xie Yanniang smiled, how can people not follow him like this?
She finally understood why Pang Yudi, who was superb in martial arts, and Kang Yunzhang, who was meticulous in thinking, followed Ruan Jingxin wholeheartedly.

This kind of heart alone makes people unable to part with it and let it go.

"That's it, thank you for your trouble." Xie Yanniang had a smile in her eyes, and her small face exuded a bit of immature and mischievous look that should be seen at this age.

Seeing this, Ruan Jingxin was also affected by her smile, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved: "It's just as long as the girl likes it."

Before Xie Yanniang lowered the curtain, she saw a familiar carriage passing by.

She took a closer look, sighed and said: "It seems that Mrs. Xie is taking a concubine, Mrs. Xie can't sit still."

The only one who can use this carriage is Xie Ruitong.Looking at the direction of the carriage, it should be the palace.

Ruan Jingxin naturally also saw the carriage with the Xie Mansion logo on it, and he knew where he was going: "Miss Xie doesn't seem to be worried that the Fifteenth Prince will intervene and make our ideas come to naught?"

He didn't use "I" but "we", obviously he already regarded Xie Yanniang as one of his own.

For some reason, this thought made Xie Yanniang feel very comfortable: "My lord, the Fifteenth Prince is not a very good person."

Long Zhiyu will never do anything that is not beneficial.

No matter how beautiful Xie Ruitong was, she was still just a girl, so she wouldn't let him use his human and financial resources to help the Xie family tide over the difficulties.

To him, beauty is just something to enjoy.

For such a little gadget, Long Zhiyu never put much effort into it, so many beautiful girls came to his door on his own initiative.

Look, isn't Xie Ruitong one of those who came to the door proactively?
Ruan Jingxin nodded, and asked casually: "Miss Xie seems to be very familiar with the fifteen princes?"

Xie Yanniang's face froze, and she quickly replied as before: "The eldest sister and the second sister want to marry into the palace, so they inquired about the prince's affairs everywhere. Minnies have heard a lot, so they are naturally familiar with it."

Ruan Jingxin could see her discomfort and her efforts to cover it up.

Xie Yanniang is hiding something, especially the great hatred for Long Zhiyu, which cannot be accumulated in a short time.

What kind of thing made this usually calm and calm little girl look like that?
Ruan Jingxin squinted his eyes, anyway, he was not in a hurry, he had a lot of time to wait for Xie Yanniang to take the initiative to tell him.

He didn't ask any more questions, and Xie Yanniang was relieved.

If she continued to ask, she didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Ruan Jingxin has always been a considerate person.

The two of them will be on the same boat in the future, maybe one day, Xie Yanniang will finally be able to calmly face the unbearable memories of her previous life, and speak slowly to Ruan Jingxin.

However, it will never be now!
As soon as the carriage stopped, Xie Ruitong looked at herself carefully.Wearing a pink tube top dress, with a white tulle on her arm, and only a white jade hairpin on her hair, the whole person looks elegant and elegant, which will definitely make the prince look sideways.

As soon as she got off the carriage, a maid led her to the back garden.

Xie Ruitong was calm on the surface, lowered his eyebrows and didn't look around, so as not to look like a bumpkin who had never seen the market, his heart was already happy.

Did the prince guess that he would come a long time ago, so he asked people to wait at the door so that he could be welcomed in?
The more she thought about it, the more she thought about it, but when she came to the back garden and saw another girl in pink besides Long Zhiyu in the gazebo on the lake, her face suddenly sank.

That little girl is still an acquaintance, the prefect's daughter whom I haven't seen for a long time.

Long Zhiyu saw Xie Ruitong from a distance, and smiled weakly and cheerfully: "Tong'er is here."

The young girl beside him was blushing, she was smiling reservedly just now, and she didn't know what funny words Long Zhiyu said.

Suddenly hearing Long Zhiyu speak, she looked over and her smile faded a little.

It is said that rivals in love meet each other, and they are extremely jealous, especially when two people are not at odds with each other.

"Miss Xie is here. It's been a long time." Zhang Miaoke glanced at Xie Ruitong, turned her face away, and spoke in a lukewarm manner, as if she was an irrelevant passerby.

Xie Ruitong didn't have a good look at her either, and snorted coldly: "It's been a long time indeed, Miss Zhang hasn't changed much."

Nothing has changed, it's still the same obnoxiousness!
"Is the prince's injury better? Tong'er has been worrying about sleeping and eating, and is afraid of disturbing the prince's recovery, so it's too late." When Xie Ruitong turned to Long Zhiyu, his cold face immediately changed into pulse With affection, the tenderness in his eyes almost dripped water.

Long Zhiyu nodded with a smile: "Thank you Tong'er for your concern, I'm almost healed already. No wonder the girl looks thinner, it's really not right for Tong'er to bother."

"Where is the lord, Tong'er should be worried about the lord." Xie Ruitong lowered her voice, with two blushes floating on her cheeks, as if she was already close to Long Zhiyu.

Hearing the cold snort of Zhang Miaoke next to her, Xie Ruitong didn't care.

As long as the prince accepts what she does, why should other people care about it?

Long Zhiyu was indeed happy, there was a woman who was so devoted to him that she couldn't sleep or eat, so he was naturally happy.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Xie Ruitong almost tore off the handkerchief in his hand: "Why didn't you see Rou'er and Qiuniang, didn't they come together?"
