Mingmen Family

Chapter 48 It's Better To Cooperate With The Yang Family

At this time, in the inn, Meng Chengwei was listening to Liu Qilin and the two pouring bitter water, his face was getting darker and darker, his servant had already avoided the door, wishing he could shrink his whole body out of the door.

"...We lost two pairs of shoes and went to several villages, but the villagers all said that we signed a contract with the Ye family, and it was still a red contract. times, they are unwilling, saying that they are afraid of being caught in the yamen."

Liu Qilin was also trembling, all the nerves on his face tensed, for fear that a teacup or inkstone from Meng Chengwei would hit him.The former is okay, but if the latter hits a vital point, it will really be over.

Unexpectedly, although Meng Chengwei's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he didn't make a move.

He sat there silent for a long time before he said, "Call Meng Liang."

Liu Qilin and the two hurriedly agreed to quit, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and sent someone to look for Meng Liang.

Meng Liang hasn't waited for a Ye family girl to go out these few days.Not to mention the girls of the Ye family, apart from Ye Jiaxing who would go to the teahouse with the nurse and entourage every day, no one in the Ye family went out, and even the servant girl stayed at home.

This really made Meng Liang depressed.

Worried that Meng Chengwei would get angry, he dared not go in front of him for the past two days, but instead came to guard him personally, hoping to get some news.

The Ye family is like this, naturally the old lady listened to Ye Chongming's words and restrained the Ye family from entering or leaving.Not only the Ye family's female family members, maids and women, she didn't even send out the daily shoppers, lest Meng Chengwei frantically tamper with the Ye family's food.

The Ye family has a farm, and the rice, noodles, vegetables, pork and mutton produced in the farm are delivered to the house every three to five days.Ye's house is big, and there is a vegetable garden beside the pond, and chickens and ducks are raised beside the vegetable garden.Even if they don't go out to buy, the Ye family will not starve to death.

So there was a state where the Ye family sealed off the mansion by themselves.

This situation was really impossible to explain to Meng Chengwei, so that when Meng Liang received rumors from the servant that Meng Chengwei wanted to see him, he panicked.

Fortunately, when Meng Chengwei heard him say that the Ye family's female relatives hadn't gone out, he didn't get angry, but handed him a post: "Send it to Ye Jiaxing."

Meng Liang was taken aback for a moment, took a look at the post, and sure enough, Ye Jiaxing's name was written on it.

"Master, you are..."

When he came back just now, he had inquired from the boy, and he already knew that Liu Qilin and the others failed in their robbing of the tenants, and the Ye family actually took the lead in signing the contract with the tenants.

That being the case, the Ye family must know the existence of their group, and also know that the Meng family wants to rob their tenants——Liu Qilin and the others are with Meng Chengwei every day. He doesn't believe that the Ye family can be so stupid. He doesn't know that Liu Qilin is Meng Chengwei people.

Since the two sides have torn their faces, why did Meng Chengwei still send the post to Ye Jiaxing?Is it going to declare war head-on?Does that make sense?
He thought about it in his heart, and said what he wanted to say a long time ago: "Master, since the Ye family is so ungrateful, why do we have to hang on that crooked neck tree? The young master of the Yang family these days Isn't Yang Tai trying every means to establish friendship with you? Or, sir, are you in contact with the Yang family?"

As soon as Meng Chengwei came to Lin'an City, he released the news that he was the young master of the imperial merchant and the nephew of Concubine Min.

As soon as the news came out, some people in Lin'an City fawned over them.When Meng Chengwei went to the teahouse to drink tea, from time to time someone came up to recommend him and chat with him.

It's just that Meng Chengwei is indifferent to these people, and he is very airy.

But the more this is the case, the more people come up to curry favor.

Meng Chengwei didn't care about these people, but asked Liu Qilin and others to investigate and understand the status and wealth of these people, so he wanted to see if there was anything they could use.

As far as Meng Liang knew, the Yang family had the highest status among them.

The Yang family is also a tea merchant. Although it is a rising star, the previous generation only rose, but the fortune is very good, the momentum is extremely strong, and the family business has expanded several times at once. The current owner of the Yang family can be equal to Ye Chongming in the tea business.

In Meng Liang's view, instead of spending so much time on the Ye family and ignoring them when it's over, it's better to directly choose to cooperate with the Yang family.

Of course, he would not admit that Yang Tai spent a lot of money to flatter him, and he even fell in love with Yang Tai's younger sister, Yang Shu.

"Can the Yang family compare with the Ye family?" Meng Chengwei asked impatiently.

The reason why he put so much effort into the Ye family is because Ye Chongming is not only the head of the tea business, but also the Ye family has a very good reputation, and his family's tea making technology is also top-notch.Such a person needs connections, connections, word-of-mouth, and technology. By cooperating with him, the Meng family can make a big difference in the tea business.

The Yang family, who have been jumping up and down in Lin'an for so many years, tried to pull Ye Chongming down to become the head of the line, but failed. It can be seen that they are not as good as the Ye family.He put the best one aside and didn't cooperate, but mixed with the next best, so what could happen?

Meng Liang saw that although Meng Chengwei's expression was not very good-looking, there was no sign of getting angry.He boldly continued to persuade: "If we have time, we can take our time. But the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the tea leaves will be ordered soon. If we don't choose a partner, this year's tea sales..."

Meng Chengwei's face suddenly changed: "Don't give me bad ideas. The Ye family and the Yang family have always been at odds. If I get mixed up with the Yang family, will the Ye family still cooperate with me?"

"Don't think that I don't know your little thoughts. Tell me, how much money did Yang Tai give you to recommend him strongly? Do you still have a crush on Yang Tai's sister?"

Meng Liang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He didn't expect that Yang Tai's contact with him was so covert, so he went to have a drink with Meng Chengwei behind his back. Meng Chengwei was able to find out that he knew everything. It's true that he, a younger brother, can stand alone at a young age. Terribly powerful.

"I, I didn't..." He didn't dare to admit it, "He just bought me a drink and asked me to say a few words for him."

"I think it's not about business. The Ye family ignores us, but the Yang family is so flattering. Moreover, they have a lot of connections and tea-making skills. We might as well cooperate with the Yang family. This is my truth. Thoughts, I didn’t speak for them when the Yang family gave me money. I really didn’t take their money.”

Meng Chengwei half-closed his eyes and looked at Meng Liang for a while, until Meng Liang was sweating, his face was pale, his eyes shrank and he didn't dare to look at him, so he looked away.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Since he wanted to use this clan brother, Meng Liang's careful thinking and tricks would not exceed his bottom line, so he turned a blind eye.

He said: "Okay, let me spare you for a while. If this happens again, you will not only go home, but I will also spread word in the family, so that no one will dare to use you."

Meng Liang's face became even paler: "I don't dare anymore."
