The First Royal Merchant: Madame is crazy

Chapter 21 Rumors
In order to let go of the Pei family, Shu Jinyu recommended him to Mrs. Pei, but she didn't expect that if the old lady didn't let go, did she cheat herself?
The opportunities and time for the development of the three great merchants of the Great Zhou Dynasty were similar. They all started from scratch and have gone through four generations. But by the third generation, the Pei family was different from the other two.

First, the third generation of the Wang family and the Dong family are both alive and in control of the power, but the head of the Pei family died unexpectedly, and the head of the family became the fourth generation Pei Mo who never saw anyone alive or dead.

Second, the Wang family and the Dong family came into contact with the imperial court and became imperial merchants successively. The Pei family did not become an imperial merchant because the third generation headed family died early.

Thirdly, if Pei Mo really died and he had no offspring, then the Pei family might be in decline.

Shu Jinyu thought to herself, even if she was lucky enough to turn around the chaos in the Pei family's shop, it seems that none of Mr. Pei's father and son or the concubine and grandson of the Pei family can afford the responsibility of the family business, and the end result is still going down, so there is still a need to do it Are these useless?
"Guard Du—"

"Young Madam, the little one is here."

She asked: "Is there any clue about the whereabouts of your young master?"

Du Guanshi was overwhelmed with gloom, "The third master has already sent a lot of people to search along the river, maybe it won't take long to find it."

Shu Jinyu couldn't help but sneered: "He can be kidnapped by bandits, but can he still find your young master?"

"This……"

Shu Jinyu sighed: "If your young master is really killed, who should be the master of the Pei family?"

"Of course the young lady..."

"Don't say such nonsense!" Shu Jinyu stretched out his hand to stop it.

Steward Du is just a steward.

After thinking for a while, Shu Jinyu said: "How about this, Steward Du, you write a letter to the old lady, and let people spread some rumors about seeing the young master's trace somewhere."

"Why?" Du Guanshi was puzzled, "What if such rumors put the young master in a dangerous situation?"

Shu Jinyu said: "You can just tell the old lady."

If Mrs. Pei agrees to spread rumors, she will resolve the matter of Yuhang according to the agreed method. If she disagrees, then she will act according to the disagreed method, and she can't work blindly with her head covered.

With a light tone, Pei Mo still heard something unusual, the little girl had decided something unknowingly.

Ding Shan was fished up and was dripping wet. He looked at Pei Mo with a pale face, and then at the young lady. He heard the last few words. He was about to object, but was stopped by Pei Mo's wink.

The little woman's behavior broke his plan again. Could it be that this time it will be the same as last time, with a different start but the same result?
When she arrived in Yuhang, Shu Jinyu was not in a hurry to solve anything, but walked through all the more than 30 shops, and she even just stood on the street and looked at many shops from a distance, that's all.

This will solve the problem?The head of Yuhang said with a heart, why not be as good as the third master?There was just the right expression on his face - three points respectful, three points sad, three points cautious, "Young Madam, when the third master came, he reported all the minor problems, or not small..."

Shu Jinyu waved his hand, "Show the account book and roster to Mr. Mo. You just need to bring the janitor from the first closed shop to me."

"Look... watch the door..."

"Too old to die?"

Everyone clearly saw that Mrs. Pei Shao's face was smiling, but the words they asked were colder than the twelfth lunar month of winter.

The head of Yuhang was caught off guard and suffocated: "Then...that's it..." After thinking about it, who would have thought that the young lady would find a janitor?
"It's okay to get a fake one," she said.

"..." Chief Yuhang couldn't say anything, he didn't know whether the little woman opposite was too tall or stupid.

On a dark and stormy night, someone held a secret letter, raised his eyes to the master and said, "No matter how stupid you are, you shouldn't find a gatekeeper, my lord, what is the way for this woman?"

The young master curled his lips, "Then let her find out the truth."

"Young Master?" The middle-aged man was surprised, "What if she tricks me out?"

"A janitor can make her take back the shop, I admit defeat!" Under the candlelight, the young man's eyes were shining brightly, as if he was staring at a desirable prey.

The janitor was a little far away from the Pei Family's Yuhang Office, and Shu Jinyu took advantage of this time to wander the streets. It was almost August, and there were still rural farmers coming up to sell wheat.

"Brother Dazhi, how much did you sell your wheat for?"

Tian Dazhi and Xing'er were walking together, and the two of them were very exchanged, when they suddenly heard the young lady's question, they quickly replied: "Last time you used wheat for wages, we are in a hurry to pay the farming expenses, and the two cents are enough sold."

"Brother Gan, go and find out the price of wheat here."

Gan Sui came back after inquiring after a while, "Three pennies and two catties."

Lower price.

"Guard Du—"

Du Shi quickly stepped forward, "Young Madam, this year the Young Master disappeared, and our Pei family did not participate in the wheat harvest."

"What was the price charged in previous years?"

Du Guan replied, "Last year it was Siwen."

Dropped in half.

"Mao is in charge?"

The head of Yuhang was surnamed Mao, he moved his fat body and hurried to her side, "Young Madam..."

"The street where the cars and horses gather is there, take us to have a look."

Didn't he just talk about wheat, why did he switch to the car and horse dealership again, Mr. Mao was very puzzled, the young lady looked like a director of the house, she obviously didn't understand anything.

When going out today, Shu Jinyu still dressed as a teenager, and even combed her hair a little rough, just like the poor young master who wandered the street to tease chickens, he was poor and ugly, but his complexion was extremely handsome.

Shu Jinyu didn't go back to the hall until the lights came on, but found a restaurant to eat and drink.

In the hall in charge, there were piles of account books on the table, Song Shi'an carefully reviewed them, "My lord, most of these accounts were made later, do you still want to read it?"

Pei Mo wrung his eyebrows with one hand, and waved the other hand, signaling him not to look, "Come here—"

Xuan Ming, dressed in black, came in, "Master, Young Madam is eating at Deji restaurant."

He asked, "Where did you visit?"

"Snacks, clothes, jewelry, as well as wheat shops and car shops."

Song Shi'an smiled and said: "If it wasn't for the Peiji restaurant, I would really think that the young lady is just wandering around. Young master, what do you think she is doing here? The first one to close down was the dyeing workshop. Could it be Deji Shi There are also dyeing masters in the temple?"

Pei Mo glanced at him, and continued to ask Xuan Ming: "Did the Chef Jin recruited by the third master last time have any contact with anyone?"

"Master Hui, yes." Xuan Ming said, "It's not the third son of the king, but the third master's staff."

Song Shi'an's tense expression suddenly relaxed: "The third master invited him, but the young lady turned him back. He must explain to the other party, otherwise he can't justify it."

Xuan Ming subconsciously nodded, "Master, when I came back just now, I found that Mr. Wang San was heading towards Deji Restaurant."

Pei Mo suddenly raised his eyes.
