Summary of the previous chapter: Luan Hongyan gave the Yang Qi-absorbing exercise book to Ma Xiaoquan, but she didn't expect it to be done by Zi Xiao... On the other hand, Hua Yue gave Ma Xiaoquan an estimate of the time it would take to take care of the copper mine.
He also suggested that Ma Xiaoquan and Ma Xiaoquan take over the salt fortune first. Of course, this was Hua Yue's plan to be alone with Ma Xiaoquan...
One month has passed in the blink of an eye...
Since Huayue had been assisting the family business in the past and had a lot of experience in management that could be put to immediate use, Ma Xiaoquan simply delegated power to Huayue to manage the mining area, while he retreated to the backstage and was responsible for the approval and approval of key decisions.
Construction of mining areas.,
Since Bei Mingshuang "became" Bei Mingxue, she and Hua Qingqing have become good friends who talk about everything. The two of them stick together all day long, playing here and there, and they have already become good friends in a month.
They knew everyone inside and outside the mining area, and "relying on" Ma Xiaoquan's "majesty" successfully repaired a small area under the mine trench into an "activity space" for the two of them.
Ma Xiaoquan was quite helpless, but there was really nothing to do in the mining area. The two girls could stay with him all the time and indulge them no matter what. Ma Xiaoquan also turned a blind eye to this.
Dongfang Qingxue was even more important. She almost took over all the internal management of the mining area. She took care of the daily life of Ma Xiaoquan and others and the management of the miners in an orderly manner. Within one month, Dongfang Qingxue's reputation increased.
She is actually older than Ma Xiaoquan, and the miners affectionately call her "the Bodhisattva Empress".
...
On this day, a few people took time to chat,
Bei Mingxue pinched her arm and murmured: "Oh, it's really annoying. Sister Qingxue treats us like this. I've gained several pounds."
Hua Qingqing also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, starting from tomorrow, I will eat less."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said with a smile: "Eat less? When did you not eat less than others? Eat less? I don't believe it."
Hua Qingqing pouted, shook Dongfang Qingxue's arm unhappily, and said, "Sister Qingxue, promise me, I won't eat so much from tomorrow on, okay?"
Dongfang Qingxue covered her mouth and chuckled, nodding: "Okay, but sister Qingqing, you are not allowed to get it secretly."
Hua Qingqing shook her head ouch: "That won't work, what if I get hungry?"
"Haha..." Ma Xiaoquan couldn't help laughing, "Qingqing, why don't you eat less? It is said that if you eat secretly, you will eat more."
Hua Qingqing rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoquan and said, "Huh, Ma San, don't worry about me. Huh? Why don't you look fatter, Ma San? Instead, you look stronger."
Hua Yue said with a smile: "Ma San exercises by himself for almost an hour every night, and of course he has not gained weight."
Hua Qingqing nodded: "Little aunt, how do you know?"
Hua Qingqing's question also attracted the attention of Dongfang Qingxue and Bei Mingxue.
Hua Yue smiled slightly and said, "Because I am also learning from Ma San."
"Exercise?" Hua Qingqing walked up to Hua Yue, stretched out her hand and squeezed Hua Yue's arm, and said in surprise: "Auntie, you look a little fatter, but the flesh on your body is very strong."
Hua Yue nodded: "These are all the training methods Ma San taught me."
Bei Mingxue became interested and asked Ma Xiaoquan: "What method is it?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said, "If you are interested, I will teach you tonight, okay."
At this moment, a homing pigeon suddenly fell from the sky. Dongfang Qingxue stretched out her right hand, and the homing pigeon landed on her hand obediently.
After taking off the letter from the pigeon's leg, Dongfang Qingxue released the pigeon again.
"Qingxue, is this a letter from Qinghan?"
Dongfang Qingxue read it over and said with a smile: "Yes, well, I can't understand many of the words Sister Qinghan wrote for you."
"Oh? Let me take a look." Ma Xiaoquan took the letter from Dongfang Qingxue, opened it, read it, and said with a smile: "No wonder you can't understand it, these words are all written by the Baiyi Clan."
"Bayi Clan?" Hua Yue's eyes suddenly lit up, he came over and said, "Ma San, I have asked you that the first head of the Ma family married a wife named Qingyi, who was the head of the Baiyi Clan.
Miss, is it true?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly in his heart, this Hua Yue, knowing that he is the first generation head of the Ma family, still insists on asking this, really...
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Yes, the first generation head of the family did marry such a lady."
Hua Qingqing said: "Ma San, is your first generation head of the family really called Ma Xiaoquan?"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Yes."
"Hey, it's strange. Your brother in Beijing is also named Ma Xiaoquan, but your name is Ma San. Really, your name is really unpleasant."
"Go, go, go, go anywhere, big or small, you teenage girl, what do you know?"
"Humph?" Hua Qingqing stuck out her tongue at Ma Xiaoquan and stopped talking.
Dongfang Qingxue came forward and asked in a low voice: "Why did Sister Yue suddenly ask that question? Does Sister Yue know something?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head. He didn't want Dongfang and Beiming to know that Huayue had known his identity. As a result, some gaps would inevitably arise between the women. The mining area had just been taken over for a while, and it was very needed.
With the unity and stability of the personnel, nothing major can go wrong at this time.
Ma Xiaoquan seemed to be unintentional, but actually he coughed intentionally. Hua Yue understood after hearing it and said with a smile: "Sister Qingxue, don't overthink it. Our Hua family, well, our Hua family has more than 1,000 people."
I have a deep relationship with the Ma family many years ago. My grandmother was the wife of the first head of the Ma family, so there are many records of our family in the preserved classics..."
Hua Yue's explanation makes sense. After all, Dongfang Qingxue learned a lot about the Mahua family from Ma Xiaoquan before this.
Dongfang Qingxue nodded. Although she still had doubts in her heart, there was no evidence and it was difficult to retract the confession.
"Okay" Dongfang Qingxue hummed and stopped talking.
...
In the afternoon, after Ma Xiaoquan finished his business, he opened the letter from Li Qinghan in his study.
The content of the letter was very limited. After all, Li Qinghan didn't know much about Baiyi Clan characters, but it was enough to make the meaning clear.
"Yes." Ma Xiaoquan put down the letter and nodded with satisfaction.
Li Qinghan said in the letter that due to Xiaoshuang's relationship, she had completely become the "Vulcan Empress" in Beijing. Not only was she worshiped when traveling, but she no longer knelt down even when she met the emperor. Moreover, the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhu
In order to appease her and fear that she might do something threatening, the school specially recruited her and canonized her as "Saint of Zhurong".
"Zhu Rong?" Ma Xiaoquan shook his head helplessly and murmured, "Even the legendary God of Fire has moved out. This Zhu Youxiao is really humorous, but that's okay. In this way, Qinghan will be safer.
Already."
Ma Xiaoquan burned the letters and walked out of the study, where he happened to meet Dongfang Qingxue.
"Qingxue, I need to ask you for something..."
Dongfang Qingxue nodded: "What's the matter?"
"Borrow your carrier pigeon and let me send a letter to Qinghan."
"Okay, by the way, Ma Xiaoquan, what did sister Qinghan say in her letter?"
Ma Xiaoquan did not hide anything and repeated the contents of the letter to Dongfang Qingxue.
After hearing this, Dongfang Qingxue covered her mouth and chuckled: "It's really not easy, Ma Xiaoquan. Sister Qinghan is now the Saint of Zhurong, so do we have to worship her when we go back?"
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his head: "I don't know either. Hey, how long it will take to go back is still unknown."
"Huh? What's wrong? Don't we go back?"
Ma Xiaoquan sighed: "Right now, the copper mining area still needs to be managed, and there is also the salt transportation. I haven't taken over it yet. Qingxue, I plan to take over the salt transportation with Hua Yue in a while.
.”
"Are you and Sister Yue two people?" Dongfang Qingxue asked.
How could Ma Xiaoquan dare to say that to Hua Yue, "That's not true. I'm still thinking of bringing you all with me. I have to keep up with my logistics. Otherwise, who will take care of me, hehe?"
Dongfang Qingxue blushed and said: "You bad guy, huh, I really want to go with you, but I can't."
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan was slightly stunned, "Qingxue, weren't you entrusted by Qinghan to watch me?"
Dongfang Qingxue smiled and said: "I know Sister Yue likes you, and I can't stop it. Instead of doing this, why not give you a chance to get along well. Ma Xiaoquan is both affectionate and reasonable, and you must marry Sister Yue."
"Isn't it?" Ma Xiaoquan reached out and probed Dongfang Qingxue's forehead, "Qingxue, are you kidding me? This is not a joke. How can you trust me so much?"
Dongfang Qingxue sighed: "I'm worried, so what should you do? Sister Yue's ability is obvious to all of us. I think, besides Sister Qinghan, Sister Yue should be the woman who can best help you in your career, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, grabbed Dongfang Qingxue's shoulders with both hands, and said, "Qingxue, have you heard the story of Xiao He's visit to the prime minister?"
Dongfang Qingxue nodded.
"Well, you are my Xiao He. Without you, the rear is unstable. What can I do to charge forward?"
Dongfang Qingxue's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she threw herself into Ma Xiaoquan's arms: "You are so annoying, I really hate your clever tongue."
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled, stretched out his hand to stroke Dongfang Qingxue's hair, and said: "Qingxue, if you don't go with me, you must have other things to do, right?"
Dongfang Qingxue raised her head and hummed: "Yes, people from Beijing City will come in a month. People from the Ma family are needed here to take charge. Although I am a woman, the situation in Beijing City is similar.
Once you’re familiar with it, it’ll be easier to do things if you’re familiar with it.”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Okay, but you are all women?"
Dongfang Qingxue shook her head and said with a smile: "Ma Xiaoquan, don't underestimate women. There are some things that us women can do much more easily than you. Do you believe it?"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Okay, since you said so, I won't say more."
