Chapter 167: Chapter 167(1/2)

The Jinyang Hou Rebellion in the previous life ended quietly like this.

In the past few days, Mu Yunjiang stayed in the house and kept thinking about one thing: the biggest storm has been calmed down, so what kind of storm can the person who is hiding behind the scenes and controlling all this create can cause the world to change?

Big change?

Think about the past life, because of the Jinyang Hou Rebellion, how many people with evil intentions took the opportunity to launch riots, and in the end, the lives of many blind followers were implicated.

What was hateful was that that man was in the dark, while she and Xiao Qiyu were in the open, passive and suffering from him in every way. This really made her feel resentful.

Seven days later, the Luo family's funeral also ended.

On the day of the burial, Luo Xunyang was the only one in the city to see him off.

Mu Yunjiang only drove to see him off at a distance, not daring to let him know for fear that he would go crazy. It is said that he had not slept a wink in the past few days and was on the verge of collapse.

Now, she can't appear again, it will hurt him.

Xiao Qiyu also rode a horse to see him off, but did not dare to get too close to him.

After the burial, Luo Xunyang dispersed his servants, slept with his head covered for three days and three nights, and then left Beijing for Yang County.

The emperor ordered the Luo family's tribe to be stationed in that barren small county, leaving Luo Xunyang to control it temporarily and guard the desolate hilly land.

He went there with his second brother Luo Hengyang who had been sick for many years - this second brother had been bedridden for many years, and his illness was brought in from the womb. He could only lie in bed, and for so many years, he had been resting in a villa in the suburbs, so

He didn't even come to the funeral of his parents. He only cried and howled a few words in his own room, which was very desolate.

Nowadays, Luo Xunyang only has one relative, but this relative is not even his biological brother - the huge Luo family fell into decline like this.

Luo Xunyang, the second brother, also died in his previous life. Once King Jinyang died, he could not escape his bad luck. In this life, he became Luo Xunyang's burden...

As for the Mu family, they have neither prospered nor fallen.

During the chaos in Yucheng, Dafang was not promoted to a noble position, and there were no casualties - the head of the family, Mu Jiang, is still taking care of his junior officials.

As for their second wife, their father has been recovering from his injuries, but they are living a harmonious life.

What Mu Yunjiang wants in this life is either wealth or a stable life - this is what suits her best. However, she has been in Beijing for a while, and after finishing her serious business, she wants to catch the person behind the scenes.

, and there is no way to force people out in a short period of time.

The Luo family is now in decline. She thinks that that person may not come out to cause trouble for the time being. He has also lost a lot of usable talents recently. Even if he came prepared, he can't afford to lose troops and generals like him!

In this case, she was finally free to take care of her personal affairs.

As the young master of the Jiang family, she must take back Liyuanxuan - her master has been away from Beijing for many years, and the power of Liyuanxuan fell into the hands of a man named Sun Yan.

Liyuanxuan is not only Liyuanxuan, it also controls Jiang Ji's news exchanges in the six northern provinces.

It's just that in recent years, Sun Yan has been a bit dishonest.

A lot of the information that the boss asked for investigation could not be found out at this point. If we had to investigate, it would be delayed every time.

Also, the boss has disappeared from the world for so many years, and has never come to Beijing to beat these subordinates, so there will always be people who think that because no one is in charge of them, things will inevitably become lax, and they are even cheating the boss.

As the young master, she has to get back the authority of Liyuanxuan.

In order to get it successfully, she also asked Suyue to visit Xiao Qiyu - asking him to cooperate.

Didn't go there in person.

The main thing is that she doesn't know how to face him yet.

Su Yue brought a message from Xiao Qiyu: "I am willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses."

On this morning, Mu Yunjiang, who once again disguised herself as a man as Jiang Qi, and Su Yue, who also disguised herself as a man, entered Liyuanxuan.

Music was being sung lively inside the Liyuan Pavilion. The diners were listening to the music while eating delicious food. The waiters in the hall were shouting about serving food. There were many diners coming and going in the attic.

This place is obviously so busy, but the amount of money Sun Yan turns in every year is the least among all the shops.

In one or two years, there was even debt.

It's really scary how powerful the borers are here.

"How many guests are there?"

A waiter saw the arrival of two pink-headed and good-looking husbands, whose outfits were particularly valuable, and he immediately greeted them with a smile.

"You two, please take a seat."

"Okay, you two, go to the private seats on the second floor."

The waiter shouted and led them up.

Mu Yunjiang ordered a table of food and wine for a total of five taels of silver - this amount of money was already huge, enough to feed an ordinary family of four for a month.

But here it is only enough for one meal. This shows how expensive the charges here are.

But no matter how expensive it is, there will still be people eating it - because the emperor will appear here from time to time. If you really want to meet the emperor and get the emperor's favor, you will make a lot of money. Those people who come to dine here will earn an opportunity to meet the emperor.

She stayed from noon to evening, ate another table in the evening, and spent another five taels of silver until they closed. She calculated carefully that she had at least a hundred tables.

Such a large amount of turnover would amount to more than a thousand taels a day, not counting the money from singing rewards. Such a turnover can equal the income of their Mu family store for several months.

For a month of thirty days, you need 30,000 taels, and for a year of 12 months, you need 360,000 silver. It is still the off-season, and if it is the peak season, the daily turnover will be even more.

However, the turnover they turn in every year is only 100,000 taels. After deducting labor and expenses, they can barely support the dozens of people in the building. Occasionally, they will report a little profit, with a maximum of 10,000 to 20,000 taels.

In fact, in addition to these apparent incomes, there is also invisible income here, which is buying and selling news - one piece of news can be sold for thousands of silver coins.

But they keep complaining about poverty. How can other stores survive?

By making money like this, they are bullying their boss and not taking care of things. They have bullied everyone.

In this way, after three days of observation, Mu Yunjiang basically figured out the way to Liyuanxuan.

On the fourth day, it was time to close the net.

She rushed in with a large group of people, bowed to the guests who were still eating, and said with a smile:

"Dear guests, distinguished guests, today we have to settle the general account. All guests who dine here can be exempted from paying for this meal. If you haven't finished eating yet, you can pack the meal and take it home to eat. All here

Anyone who dines can receive an extra tael of silver and a discount slip. In three days, the store will reopen. At that time, all old customers can get a 50% discount. I hope the guests will go back and promote it well..."

When the guests saw this handsome young man bringing a large group of people to the door, they felt that he was here to cause trouble. They also heard that they could get money, so they all wisely took the money and the 50% off discount note and ran away.

.

When the waiter saw someone coming to cause trouble, he was anxious and went to ask the shopkeeper Sun Yan.

Sun Yan came soon. A fat, middle-aged man with a fair face and a fat head pointed at her and shouted angrily on the spot:

"Who are you? How dare you come to our Liyuanxuan to act wild...have you eaten the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage?"

Su Yue stood in front of Mu Yunjiang and waved out a token, which was the order from Young Master Jiang Ji. The old boss had already sent word that from now on, all the shops in Jiang Ji would be under the control of Young Master Jiang Ji.

As Sun Yan looked at it, his face turned slightly pale, and all the anger he had hidden away was put away, and a flattering smile appeared on his face: "Oh, it turns out that it is the young master's family who has arrived. He was not greeted at a distance, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful."

"Stop talking nonsense, please take out the account books for the past three days. I want to reconcile them."

Mu Yunjiang sat there leisurely, cracking melon seeds and giving orders casually.

"Yes, yes, ask them to send it over immediately. Bookkeeper, bring over the account book..."

He waved his hand across the accounting room.

An unprepossessing accountant came over and handed over the account book respectfully without any embarrassment.

Mu Yunjiang sat there, picked up an abacus that he kept with him, and started playing with the beads.

The hands of those who dialed the abacus were like jade. They started ticking and dialing the abacus very fast. In a short time, they had all the accounts settled. In the end, it was more than 400 taels in one day, which is one thousand three hundred and two in three days.

Fifteen taels.

In other words, in three days, they wiped out more than 2,000 people.

This number is so astonishing.

She was suddenly curious, where did he spend so much money after being greedy?

In her previous life, Sun Yan disappeared mysteriously, and she did not find out what happened to him. After she took charge of Liyuanxuan personally, the business was so good that all her colleagues were jealous. Therefore, she did not pursue the old accounts.

It is also because this debt will definitely not be recovered.

But today, she must interrogate Sun Yan, who is still alive, or find out other important things.

"Four hundred taels?" She pointed at the abacus and sneered: "Who are you trying to deceive?"

Sun Yan's face was not red and he was out of breath: "It's not that I'm trying to deceive others, but that there's been a lot of turmoil in Tiandu City recently. How many people are out to eat out? It's good to have so many..."

"But I have been here for three days. In the past three days, I came to Shaodong's house in three different identities. I wrote down how many people came in every day and how many tables we ate at...

"Oh, by the way, in order to prevent you from defaulting on your debt, I also invited Mr. Li Hengli from the Yamen to come over and watch your daily turnover with me... Do you want to see how much money we calculated for you?"

When Sun Yan heard this, his face became increasingly ugly, "How much..."

"Three thousand five hundred and seventy-eight taels..."

As soon as she spit out this number, she immediately darkened her face and shouted loudly: "If you still refuse to admit it, then King Jingbei can also testify that he is upstairs. How much money have you escaped in the past three days, sir?"

How much sharp silver has been paid to the government? Shouldn’t it be settled properly this time..."

As she spoke, she pointed upstairs.
To be continued...
