The third shift today, the second shift arrives, please collect the red ticket.

##

The soaring fire of Su Ji's granary swept away the stagnant atmosphere in the chamber of commerce. Although only a few key figures knew the inside story, the small merchants who had followed the three giants of the chamber of commerce for a long time knew it well. The bosses of the Chamber of Commerce made a move.

They are fortunate that they can recognize the situation and follow behind the Chamber of Commerce. Although they can only pick up some leftovers to eat, it is better to have something than nothing; Owned by the boss, the leftovers are enough for these small merchants to make a well-off home in Luzhou City; there is a more important point: don't worry about your own shop being smashed, the warehouse will not catch fire for no reason, right?

Su Ji is worthy of being a good supporting actor. Under Su Jin's arrangement, the shopkeeper of the Su family's food store beat drums to call for grievances at dawn, and went to the Luzhou prefect's yamen to report the case. Why didn't Yu Su's young master come to report the case in person? It is said that he was already sick in bed because of his panic attack.

At the Chamber of Commerce's morning meeting every day, everyone in the Chamber of Commerce who heard the news looked at each other. It seems that like a father, like a son, this kid is afraid to follow in his father's footsteps.

But Tang Jiyuan didn't mention this matter at all, not even mentioning Su Ji's name, he just said a few words and hastily announced the end of the meeting.

To Tang Jiyuan, Su Ji was like a dog blocking the way up the mountain. He had already kicked down the mountain. Should he go down the mountain to see if he broke a few bones?Not worth mentioning at all.

From Tang Jiyuan's point of view, all the fancy tricks are not as effective as a clean thunder strike. If you scratch the old man's face, the old man will kill you. Who is with you?

People say that blessings are unparalleled, and that good things are hard to come by; for Chairman Tang, today is a day when blessings come and good things come in pairs, because a large amount of food that Vice President Huang spent a lot of money on has arrived in Nanning. door pier.

The Chamber of Commerce spent a lot of money this time, pinpointing the pulse of next year's sudden grain profits, and even searched at the consistent price per stone. This price has exceeded the psychological limit of merchants from all over the country who went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to purchase, so they easily defeated Many merchants, under the scolding, Vice President Huang purchased 30 shi of grain in one go according to Tang Jiyuan's request.

The transportation of this batch of grain alone has to be transported to Luzhou Nanmen Wharf in several batches, and each trip requires 30 grain ships to be transported back and forth four times. <Hey, this 30 shi of grain will bring him 40 guan, [-] guan, or even more in return.

He despises those small merchants who are frightened. Only Tang Jiyuan can do such a big deal without blinking an eyelid, so he doesn't ask the small merchants to help with things like connecting ships.

"At that time, let's share some profits with them. It's not good if there are too many people." Tang Jiyuan thought to himself: "There should be more people in the granary to guard the granary. It is absolutely impossible to cut off people for twelve hours a day. You can't hide it from other people's eyes and ears, but even if someone wants to spoil the water, there is no way for you to take advantage of it."

……

The little official of the Su family, who was rumored to be ill, was reading a book in the study at the moment, and naturally had to do a full set of acting. In order to cooperate with the rumors from the outside world, he could only stay in the Su manor honestly, three days later. Oh my god, Su Jin really looks a little sick now. She can't go out for three days and can only stay in the study and read thread-bound books. The sisters, Rouniang and Huanniang all have their own affairs, so he can only stay at home bored.

Mrs. Wang went there a few times, and after paying her respects every day, she could only chat for a few words. Next, Mrs. Wang had to recite scriptures and worship the Buddha. Objected to Su Jin watching from the sidelines, but Su Jinguang was about to go crazy listening to those awkward scriptures.

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajna Paramita, sees that the five aggregates are all empty, and overcomes all hardships. Shariputra! It is not different from empty, empty is not different from sex, sex is empty, and empty is sex. Thinking and knowing , It is also the same. Shariputra! It is all empty phases. It is not born or destroyed, not dirty or clean, neither increasing nor decreasing. Therefore, there is no color in the air, no thoughts, thoughts, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind. Colorless sound Fragrance touches the Dharma. There is no realm of vision, or even the realm of unconsciousness. There is no ignorance, nor the end of ignorance. There is no old age and death, nor the end of old age and death..."

When the old lady knocked on the wooden fish to recite scriptures again, Su Jin had no choice but to go back to the study. He flipped left and right, and suddenly saw the black box that he found that day in the secret room of the firewood room. I was bored, so I took it out to look again.

The three black pills still smelled so pungent and unpleasant. Su Jin felt sick when he smelled the smell, so he quickly threw them into the box, picked up the yellowed piece of paper with the writing on it, and studied After waiting for half an hour, Su Jin finally retreated. This is not a fucking word, but a talisman!At any rate, I have practiced calligraphy and copied real cursive script, but I don't know the number of lines on this piece of paper. Su Jin sighed, stuffed the piece of paper into the box, and put it away again.

After drinking several cups of tea and going to the toilet several times in boredom, Su Jin was drowsy with the book "The Doctrine of the Mean" in his hand, but for some reason, his body was burning hot and dry, and he was indescribably unhappy.

"Are you suffering from heatstroke?" Su Jin touched his forehead and pinched someone again, and the discomfort on his body became more and more intense, and gradually spread to a certain part.

"Not good, could it be..." Su Jin was startled into a sweat, he suddenly remembered that night when he was hunting treasures in the backyard, after smelling the black pill, he had messed with Rou Niang when he came back, although he had that idea, but in In my life experience in this and future generations, I have never been so domineering towards a woman, and when I feel it, I will take off my clothes and enter Hong Kong.

"Is there something wrong with this pill?" Su Jin didn't know what to do.

The situation is getting more and more urgent, and the abnormalities in the body are becoming more and more difficult to suppress. A certain part is as hard as iron. Su Jin pinches it under his legs in embarrassment, and suddenly hears the sound of footsteps outside the door, Xiaomi appears at the door and says : "My lord, Dong Yan's family from Hefeng Tower is here to visit!"

Su Jin let out a scream, and it was really time for her to come, so she hurriedly said: "Just say I'm not here, and come to visit tomorrow to apologize."

Mi Er scratched her head, turned around and left in doubt, and after a while Su Jin heard her voice: "Dong Yan's family, I am very sorry, my young master said he is not here... come to visit tomorrow."

Su Jinyu cried without tears, this stupid girl was hopeless, she hurriedly shouted: "I am... I am..."

Hearing the footsteps coming slowly, a pretty figure appeared at the door of the study, and said with a smile: "Is this how Mr. Su always plays tricks on people?"

Su Jin is not standing, nor is he not standing. Fortunately, the desk is not too short, and his half-squatting posture just covers his lower body, so he reluctantly bows his body and salutes.

After Xiaomier delivered the tea and left, only Su Jin and Yan Biyun were left in the study. Su Jin only felt that his sense of smell became more acute, and he could still smell Yan Biyun's pleasant and seductive aura from a long distance away from the desk. , his face was flushed, and he could only force himself to suppress the thoughts in his heart.

Yan Biyun told Su Jin that his complexion was different, and he asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Are you really sick?"

Su Jin gritted his teeth and waved his hands, indicating that he was fine.

Yan Biyun became more suspicious, stood up and walked towards the book case, Su Jin hurriedly said: "Don't...don't come here."

"How can you persevere when you are sick? You have to ask the doctor for medicine. Biyun has read some medical books. How about I help you read it?"

Su Jin thought: Can I let you see it?It's no wonder you're not scared to death when I see you.With thoughts rolling in his stomach, he had to keep waving his hands to keep Yan Biyun away.
