After crossing, I look forward to the three stepmothers leaving the singles every day

Chapter 34 The enemy of the enemy

"Yo, long time no see." Ma Huayi strode in with a smile, and glanced at the three panniers behind them out of the corner of his eye.

I was so excited last time that I forgot to ask where Nan Xing lived.

For the past two days, he has been very worried. Seeing that the apricot is about to disappear, he doesn't know where to find her.

No, as soon as Zhu Gao came to report, he who was still asleep immediately jumped up, washed up casually, and hurried over here, for fear of keeping them waiting for a long time.

"...It's been a long time." Nan Xing replied with a smile, this was a bit careless, it's only been two days.

He greeted him so kindly, like an old friend reunited after a long absence.

His enthusiasm immediately made Nan Xing feel like a mirror in his heart, that is, the preserved apricots made him a lot of money.

"I don't know how many you brought here this time?" After exchanging pleasantries, Ma Huayi immediately got to the point anxiously.

"Look." After finishing speaking, Nan Xing opened the three panniers, revealing the packed apricots.

Seeing this, Ma Huayi was overjoyed, his throat moved, and he swallowed violently.

Zhu Gao at the side was stunned: "... so many."

He thought that the amount Nan Xing brought should be about the same as last time.

Without blinking, Ma Huayi immediately waved his hand: "I want it all."

"Horse shopkeeper, don't you ask the price first?" Nan Xing asked with blinking eyes.

"...Are you going to raise the price again?" Ma Huayi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at her in disbelief.

As cunning as a fox, she offered him the last time she bargained, but in business, everyone hopes to maximize their own interests.

At this moment, he had already weighed it quietly in his heart. In fact, he didn't need to weigh it. Even if she set the price on the ground, he would still buy it all.

After their restaurant launched this unique preserved apricot, the business of the restaurant has improved visibly in the past two days, and even the seats are full.

He directly snatched many customers from the opposite restaurant, which made the opponent's teeth itch with hatred.

In order to establish a good relationship, he also sent a copy to the county magistrate.

Undoubtedly, the county magistrate also praised it after tasting it, so he would naturally pay more attention to his restaurant.

After the accountant did the calculation, he was surprised that the profit income of these two days was equal to the income of more than ten days.

The other family smelled it, and sent people to inquire about the preserved apricots openly and secretly.

Therefore, even if she raises the price again, he has nothing to do with it, otherwise the delicious preserved apricots will be sold to his deadly enemy in turn.

"Where, where, what does Shopkeeper Ma think of me? The most important thing in business is honesty. I, Nan Xing, do things first and second. I don't like others taking advantage of me, and vice versa. Since we have agreed last time Alright, then give it to me at the last price." Nan Xing said seriously.

"Okay, well said!" Ma Huayi exclaimed excitedly, and couldn't help admiring her again.

Because the clothes of Nan Xing and the others did not look like rich people to him.

At first glance, Nan Xing's clothes were in good condition, except for two patches on the sleeves.

However, the clothes on Qiu Ju and Chun Mei's bodies are patched and patched, and they look like they were born in poverty.

But with such a background, it is really not easy to keep one's bottom line and principles.

Zhu Gao didn't wait for him to speak, he turned around and went out. When he came back, he came in with a scale, followed by an accountant.

Seeing this, Ma Huayi gave him an approving look, which made Zhu Gao feel overjoyed immediately, and worked even harder when he started working.

Zhu Gao weighed directly in front of Nan Xing, and after the accountant recorded a number, he poured out all the preserved apricots, and planned to weigh the three baskets again, so that the two numbers could be subtracted to get the number It is the net weight of preserved apricots.

Ma Huayi waved his hand directly, and said generously: "No need, just pay according to this weight."

With a 'hiss' sound, Qiu Ju and Chun Mei were staring in a daze, and almost stopped. If they knew it, they would have gone out with a heavier back basket.

Nan Xing was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Shopkeeper Ma to be so forthright, and those three panniers added up to some weight, doing so would be tantamount to raising her price indirectly.

Yu Jiao walked in, and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper, the old lady said, we don't want to neglect the honored guests today, the lunch is ready."

Ma Huayi was taken aback, his mother had ignored the restaurant business for a long time, how would he know that a distinguished guest was coming?
After being taken aback for a moment, he turned to Nan Xing and said, "Are you in a hurry? My mother asked you to come home with me for dinner."

These words make people sound more cordial, more like friends who have known each other for a long time, they are informal with each other and often visit each other.

Before Nan Xing could speak, the white-haired old man hurriedly reminded: "I still have to go to the county office today, so don't miss out on business."

"Don't worry, I can't make mistakes, I have my own measure." Nan Xing replied consciously.

So, she smiled at Ma Huayi and said, "Unfortunately, I still have something to do today, so I can only come to visit another day, please ask Mrs. Ma to say hello to the old lady for me."

Ma Huayi kept it for a while, seeing that she didn't seem to be pretending to refuse, so he had no choice but to give up, and then according to her request, asked the accountant to convert the money they got from selling preserved apricots into eight taels of gold, nine taels of silver and one thousand Wen. It is convenient for the three of them to carry and use.

The money earned from selling preserved apricots last time was enough to shock Qiu Ju and Chun Mei.

Although they were mentally prepared, their eyes were still staring this time.

After sending Nan Xing away, Ma Huayi immediately ran into the inner hall, and entered a courtyard through a side door.

"Aniang, Nan Xing and the others will leave first if they have something to do." He said respectfully to an old woman in plain clothes.

The old woman He Rudi rolled her eyes at him: "I have already asked He Jing to send someone to investigate. Their family lives in Xiaozhai Village and they are from Gong Town."

Ma Huayi's heart trembled. At first, he just thought that his aunt was curious about what kind of person the little girl who could cook such delicious apricots was. He just wanted to meet her in person.

From this point of view, things are not so simple.

"Then what else did Aunt find?" He couldn't help frowning.

"It's the same as ours, except that theirs is still there, but ours is gone..." He Rudi jumped out word by word with resentful eyes.

Hearing this, Ma Huayi looked at his aunt and frowned even deeper, no wonder his aunt wanted to entertain Nan Xing at home.

He wondered subconsciously: "Could it be that they are using their strength to sell the preserved apricots to our restaurant?"

"Isn't our family taking advantage of our strengths?" He Rudi smiled wryly, their family is still weak, otherwise how could the criminals have been at large.

Thinking of this, her heart was filled with resentment, she clenched her fists secretly, the kindness in her eyes flashed away, the sharpness in her eyes was terrifying.

After a while, she continued to say quietly: "After so many years, they finally relaxed their vigilance and showed their fox tails a little. position. Perhaps, this is the opportunity we have to wait for..."

Ma Huayi knew it in his heart, but he still couldn't help asking: "...So, what does A Niang mean?"

"The enemy of your enemy is your friend!"

"The son understands."
