MTL - Traveling Through Ancient Times To Be a Shopkeeper-Chapter 80
As soon as Wei Cheng and Zhou Yuan arrived at the grocery store, they were confused by a piece of news!
Zhou Zheng happily said: "Yuan Yuan, your third sister-in-law is pregnant! She is more than two months pregnant!"
What? !
The couple looked at each other for a long time before congratulating them.
"Congratulations third uncle!"
"The third sister-in-law is pregnant. This is a happy event. Congratulations to the third brother!" Although he and the third sister-in-law are at odds, but the third brother can have another child, Zhou Yuan is happy for his third brother.
only-
Zhou Yuan asked: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Do you have something to say?"
Wei Cheng also saw his uncle's expression of embarrassment, he hesitated to speak.
Wei Cheng and Zhou Yuan looked at each other suspiciously.
Zhou Zhengdao: "Brother, just say it, Yuan Yuan and brother-in-law will understand."
The couple were even more confused about what they needed to forgive.
Zhou Yong pondered for a long time before intermittently saying: "Yuan Yuan, that, brother, I'm sorry...it's your sister-in-law...she came back from the Li family village, she, the Li family can't tolerate her, she is in the Li family After being abused, she sneaked back recently and fainted at the door of the house. The family asked a doctor to treat her and she woke up not long after. Your sister-in-law begged and swore poisonously. Shitou knelt down to intercede for his mother, and her parents looked at her miserable , let your sister-in-law go home, I know this..."
"Brother." Zhou Yuan interrupted Zhou Yong, he said with a slight smile, "You don't need to apologize, your parents and you will handle the matter of sister-in-law in a reasonable manner. Parents agree to let sister-in-law come back, it must be their consideration."
When he went back to his natal home on New Year's Eve, he saw his nephew became silent. He didn't want to see his nephew become silent and was always unhappy.
Zhou Yuan chose to forgive!
"Then... brother-in-law..." Zhou Yong didn't dare to face Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng was annoyed that Mrs. Zhou targeted his daughter-in-law everywhere, almost destroying her reputation, but people are not guilty of serious crimes. I have suffered so much this time, I hope she knows how to cherish, "Brother, what Yuan Yuan means is what I mean, I am the only one. I hope my sister-in-law will stop looking for trouble."
Zhou Yong quickly assured: "No, no, she swore a poisonous oath, if she doesn't change her temper, she promises to the family that it will be her divorce letter."
Mrs. Li sneaked back and was enslaved by her family in just a few months. She was beaten and scolded, and she hadn’t had a full meal. When the refugees came back, the Zhou family was shocked.
Zhou Yong couldn't bear it. After all, he had been married for many years, and his son Shi Shi kept begging. He didn't want adults' affairs to leave a shadow on his son.
Zhou's father and Zhou's mother also felt that Mrs. Li had learned the lesson she deserved, and Mrs. Li was the mother of her grandchildren, so they decided to give Mrs. Li one last chance.
Zhou Yong didn't say that Mrs. Li ran back and the Li family came to ask for someone the next day, but Zhou Yong didn't break up with Mrs. Li. She was still from Mrs. Zhou's family. Mrs. Li who was lying on the bed knew that Mrs. Li's family was making trouble. Parents, otherwise she will sue them, even if she is not filial to sue her parents, she will go to jail if she has to.
In the end, the Li family got scared, signed a divorce letter, and walked away cursing.
—
News from the state capital came back.
Wei Cheng told Wei Lei the news that came back, and Wei Lei was immediately furious, "Ren Yuanwai actually married Nian Luo to this kind of person, just for his business."
Wei Chengdao: "Wai Yuan probably agreed to the marriage because he didn't know the problems involved."
Zhou Yuan worried: "Husband, what should we do now?"
"Chengzi, we already know what's going on, what should we do next?" Wei Lei clenched his fists, he wished he could go to Renfu to find Ren Yuanwai and show him the news from the prefecture, so that Ren Yuanwai could see what he pushed for business. My brother's kang.
Wei Cheng's black eyes narrowed, and he said directly: "First pass the post to Ren Fu."
The next step is to invite Ren Wai to meet.
Wei Hu went to Renfu to deliver the post.
When Ren Yuan received the post, he was very disdainful, and threw it on the table casually: "A steward still wants to ask me to meet, which is too loud."
"Father is talking about Wei Lei, the steward of Baizhen Building that Mother mentioned, who intends to marry Luo Ge'er?" The eldest son of the Ren family picked up the post and opened it casually, not paying attention, but when he saw clearly where the payment was made, he was shocked. He exhaled, "Wei Cheng—!! This is the owner of Baizhenlou, the post from the new official and businessman in the county is not from Wei Lei."
Surprised, Ren Ren took his son's post and looked at it carefully. When he saw the place where the signature was signed, it really said the name of the owner of Baizhenlou.
"The owner of Baizhenlou invites you, so you have to go!"
Ren Yuanwai had heard his wife say that Wei Lei and Wei Cheng were friends, and this time the owner of Baizhen Building should have something to do with Wei Lei, otherwise he couldn't figure out why the owner of Baizhen Building invited him to a party.
If the guess is correct, how should he refuse? His elder brother must marry the nephew of the wealthy businessman in Fucheng. This is related to the interests of the Ren family. .
However, the owner of Baizhenlou is an upstart in Nanshan County, he can't offend him rashly, although he can't offend him, he can't let outsiders point fingers at the family affairs of his family.
Thinking so, Ren Wai went to the appointment on time the next day.
The location is about Baizhen Building.
There were only Wei Cheng and Wei Lei in the private room of Baizhen Building, Wei Hu was waiting outside the door, and as soon as Ren Yuanwai arrived, he was respectfully welcomed into the private room.
Seeing the extraordinary Wei Cheng outside the Ren staff, everyone felt three points inferior. He appreciates Wei Lei's tall and stable appearance, but appreciation will not shake his decision.
"Boss Wei, I don't know what advice you have, so please tell me straight up." Ren Wai sat down and opened up the topic directly. He was afraid that facing the oppression of Baizhenlou's boss, his momentum would become weaker.
"In addition to the staff, please read the news from Fucheng." Wei Cheng waved his hand, and Wei Hu handed over a letter.
Ren Yuanwai didn't know what the other party was trying to do, and he was in a disadvantaged position. He still read the letter, and his face turned red when he saw the end.
According to the news from Fucheng, the rich businessman who cooperated with the Ren family asked the Ren family to marry their children to his nephew. The marriage was done under the guise of cooperation between the two families. In fact, he lied about one thing. The rich businessman hated his younger brother's family very much. A rambunctious family asked the rich businessman to help his son marry a wife.
Generally, it is not difficult to marry a wife, but the difficulty is that the nephew of the wealthy businessman has a bad reputation in Fucheng. Twisted, likes domestic violence, all the concubines in the mansion were bought in, and several of them were beaten to death by him.
Later, his notoriety spread for some reason. Although it has not been confirmed, no one is willing to marry their own children.
The rich businessman's nephew insisted on marrying a well-matched wife. The girls in the brothel were all for fun, and the inferior ones were not good enough for him, but his reputation was so bad that no one would push their children into the kang.
The rich businessman was harassed by his younger brother's family, so he must ask the rich businessman to help his nephew find a suitable daughter or young master. The rich businessman couldn't refuse when he was annoyed.
Ren Yuanwai didn't know what kind of person the nephew of the wealthy businessman was, and he thought that he could be in-laws with the wealthy businessman. If the two married, he wouldn't be afraid that the wealthy businessman would withdraw his cooperation at any time. Such a good thing, Ren Yuanwai agreed.
Wei Cheng didn't see Ren Yuanwai's livid face, and said calmly, "I wonder if Ren Yuanwai has any thoughts after reading the news?"
Although Ren Yuanwai was angered by others, the business cooperation between the Ren family and the wealthy businessman in Fucheng was related to the Ren family's interests. Even if he knew the whole story, he felt that sacrificing a **** in exchange for benefits, he could not refuse of.
At most, I will treat my third aunt more in the future, and give more subsidies to my brother's dowry when he gets married.
Luckily he didn't say anything about Ren Yuan's thoughts, otherwise Wei Lei would be absolutely angry and beat him up when he heard it.
Wei Cheng will definitely bring the Ren family to an end. Wei Lei is his brother in this era and has a better relationship than his parents.
Ren Yuanwai said: "Boss Wei, I know about this matter, but half of my Ren family's business comes from Fucheng cooperation, even if this is the case, I can't ignore the Ren family, I can only wrong my brother."
After all, it is still necessary to push Ren Nianluo into the kang.
Wei Lei immediately felt angry. He had never been angry before, and he had to sacrifice Ren Nianluo just for the benefit of the family.
Wei Lei wanted to turn his back on him directly, or take him away. Fortunately, he was still rational, and Wei Cheng looked at him to appease him, so he tried his best to suppress his anger.
A sharp look flashed in Wei Cheng's eyes, and he said indifferently: "Ren Yuanwai is only concerned about the interests of the Ren family. I don't know if the source of goods from my Nanbeihang is provided to the shops under Ren Yuanwai's name, Ren Yuanwai thinks whether to cooperate with me from Nanbeihang or with the one from Fucheng. Which side will benefit more from the cooperation of wealthy businessmen?"
Ren Ren's breathing stopped for a moment, and he was very excited. Of course, he knew the benefits of the north-south line of goods. He had always wanted to buy a batch of goods from the north-south line. Stable supply to stores for sale is different from wholesale wholesale. Stable supply to stores for sale is cooperation. In terms of cooperation, his family is not even qualified for negotiation.
Now, the owner of the Nanbeihang said that he wanted to provide his Ren family with a source of goods. If there was a source of goods from the Nanbeihang, his Ren family's business would be able to expand.
It seems that Wei Cheng attaches great importance to this brother Wei Lei, and if he can obtain high-quality goods through this, he will still like the wealthy businessman in Fucheng.
Since the other party wanted him to agree to the marriage so much, he used this to ask for high-grade goods, so that he could open a store like Baizhenlou, and his family didn't sell it.
Ren Yuanwai thought about it, and his heart was drifting.
Member Ren said calmly: "What Boss Wei means is that he can provide the supply of goods to my Ren family?"
"Mr. Ren is a smart person, so I'll just say it straight." Wei Cheng threw out the condition, "My brother and Master Ren Nianluo of your mansion are in love with each other. If Master Ren has the beauty of an adult, I can promise to the shop under the name of Ren's mansion. Provide north-south line of supply.
"It's easy to say, easy to say, if we can cooperate with Boss Wei, both of them are cooperative relations, how can I refuse the marriage." Wai Ren wanted more benefits, so he took the opportunity to ask, "My Ren family agreed to the conditions of the marriage between the two, and I want Nanbeihang to provide it. Give me a high-level source of goods for the family, and if Boss Wei agrees, I will immediately agree to marry Guanshi Wei to my brother."
As soon as Ren Yuanwai said this, Wei Cheng snorted coldly in his heart, really greedy!
Wei Lei looked angry and guilty, angry at Ren Wai taking advantage of the fire, and guilty of his friends.
Wei Lei wanted to stop him, but he would not agree to provide the Ren family with high-grade supplies from the north-south line. Wei Lei followed his friend all the way, how could he not know the importance of high-grade supplies, which are the lifeblood of a friend's business .
The high-level supply of goods is to maximize profits, which involves the expansion of network resources, and it also involves the position that Baizhenlou will occupy in the Dajing Kingdom in the future.
If a high-end source of goods is provided to the Ren family members, the supply of goods falls into his hands, which cannot support the value of the goods at all, and will only reduce the quality of the goods.
Wei Lei doesn't want his brother to sacrifice too much for him, he will find another way to deal with Nian Luo.
"Chengzi, I..."
"Leizi, I'll talk about what I want to say later."
Wei Cheng could see what his friend was thinking, so he stopped him and gave him a reassuring look, so Wei Lei suppressed himself and remained silent.
Wei Cheng tapped his fingers on the table, with a restrained smile on his face, his sharp eyes looked at Ren Yuanwai, who was stared at Ren Yuanwai, and his heart was beating drums. After a while, Wei Cheng said: "Ren Yuanwai, you think too much. Merchants are not qualified to obtain high-grade goods, and today Japan sincerely asks Ren Yuanwai to discuss, isn’t Ren Yuanwai’s big mouth too much!"
Wei Cheng's unceremonious words made Ren Yuan look embarrassed for a while. He was angry at what Wei Cheng said, and felt that the other party came to beg him, begging him to agree to the marriage, and the sovereignty was still in his hands. Thinking this way, Ren The outsiders were even more reluctant to let go.
"Boss Wei, you are an official and businessman, so I can't afford to offend you. However, you are an official and businessman, and you can't control my family affairs. If Boss Wei doesn't agree with my terms, there is nothing to talk about. You can't cooperate with Boss Wei, cooperate with Fucheng My Ren family has nothing to lose." Ren Yuanwai wanted to use this to threaten that if the other party did not agree, he would marry his brother to Fucheng, so don't blame him!
Wei Cheng didn't care about the other party's threatening words at all, and said indifferently: "Naturally, I can't interfere in the family affairs of Ren Yuanwai, but I remind Ren Yuanwai of one thing. It is reported that the rich businessman in Fucheng is trying to get rid of his younger brother's family affairs. One family, Ren Yuanwai may gain temporary benefits by marrying his elder brother, but given the dislike of the rich merchants in Fucheng for his younger brother's family, I don't know if Ren Yuanwai has thought about the consequences."
Member Ren looked hesitant, how could he not know the consequences, the rich merchants in Fucheng would definitely cut off the cooperation between the two companies, his Ren family would lose their biggest partner, and the Ren family would face the consequences of closing the store.
If you choose a wealthy businessman in Fucheng or a north-south trip, the staff will not know the importance, and immediately smiled flatteringly, "Boss Wei, I was just joking just to test your sincerity. You don't have to take it seriously. I think Wei Guanshi is a good-looking talent. He is very different from my brother." They are a good match, they both hit it off, as a father, how can you beat a mandarin duck, right?" He didn't think that Wei Cheng lied to him, and if it was reported above, he would also hate having such a nephew.
"Is Ren Yuanwai agreeing to their marriage?" Wei Cheng asked.
"Agreed! How could I disagree!" Ren Yuanwai hurriedly said, looked at Wei Cheng after speaking, and asked cautiously: "Then, the source of goods from the North and South..."
"Don't worry, all the staff members are sincere. I, Wei Cheng, promised to provide the supply of goods to the shops under the name of the Ren Mansion. I will definitely not go back on my word." Wei Cheng said, "On the date of the marriage proposal in the Shanggui Mansion, the north-south travel contract will be presented."
Wei Cheng made a promise to others, but there is still something to hide. He provides the supply of goods to the Ren family, and he is only limited to the Ren family to operate the store. He is currently operating the store, and the contract is signed based on the quantity of goods that the Ren family currently needs for the store. In the future, if the other party It's another matter if you taste the sweetness and expand the store to increase the supply of goods.
After all, the matter has settled, and there is no way to turn the tide. If you talk about the source of goods in the future, the other party will also consider that they have no bargaining chips to negotiate.
"Boss Wei is so refreshing!" Ren Wai looked very happy, thinking that he would get great benefits, and he would like to open a few more shops when the supply of goods was provided by the South and North Bank. Anyway, the South and North Guild would provide the supply of goods. The son-in-law immediately smiled and said, "Staff Wei, no, my son-in-law, don't you think it's time to come and propose marriage as soon as possible?"
Wei Cheng: "......"
As expected of a merchant, the speed of changing face is so fast! She's even thicker-skinned, and when she turned around, she enthusiastically called out her son-in-law!
Wei Lei: "..."
He should marry Nian Luo as soon as possible, because his future father-in-law is too virtuous!
It's settled!
After Zhou Yuan heard the story, he felt relieved. He just felt that the third concubine of the Ren family and Mrs. Ren were both very good-natured, so how could Ren Yuanwai be so snobbish.
Wei Cheng explained to his daughter-in-law: "In the face of interests, in the eyes of some people, anything can be discarded. Abandoning a concubine in exchange for a rich life, Ren Yuan is the kind of person who only sees wealth and benefits. Mrs. Ren did not object before, yes She thinks that it is beneficial for Ren Nianluo to marry Wei Lei, it can bring face to the Ren family, and San Yiniang is the one who really treats Ren Nianluo well."
Zhou Yuan felt dizzy when he heard it, it was so complicated!
Wei Cheng said to Wei Lei: "Cheng Zi, find a matchmaker as soon as possible to propose marriage, so as not to cause any trouble to this officer."
"I will." Wei Lei said sincerely, "Thank you Cheng Zi!"
Wei Cheng said bluntly, "I'll accept your thank you!"
He knew that Wei Lei felt guilty, so he accepted Wei Lei's thank you!
Wei Lei also did things quickly, and within a few days he went to Ren's mansion to propose a marriage. After the marriage was settled, both Wei Lei and Ren Nianluo didn't have to hide it anymore.
However, when Wei Lei told his family that he was going to marry a businessman's elder brother as his husband, his parents immediately thought that there was money to be made, Wei Lei directly suppressed it, and let his parents abuse him.
After this confrontation with Ren Yuanwai, Wei Lei attached great importance to his affairs with Ren Nianluo. If the family members dragged their feet, he would definitely teach them an unforgettable lesson.
Wei Lei and Ren Nianluo's marriage is scheduled for August!
