Chapter 125 Parliament
"Snapped."

A crisp crack sounded.

Yang Qiliang directly crushed the teacup in his hand, his face suddenly turned livid.Even the old man on the opposite side who had been concentrating on reading couldn't help raising his head, narrowing his eyes and looking at Su Chengrui a little more.

Looking at Li Mao standing respectfully beside Su Chengrui, it was obvious that he was not joking.It took a long time for everyone to recover from the shock, and it was difficult to calm down in their hearts.

Who doesn't know Chengrui Industry?The silk weaving, ready-to-wear jewelry involved are deeply sought after and loved by the courtiers in the harem.But among all industries, tobacco leaves are the most famous. They have their own exclusive tobacco leaf planting areas, as well as different grades and packaging for different classes of people.

Last year, the envoys from neighboring countries visited and offered cigarettes as a gift, which was well received and praised by the envoys, and then flowed to other countries.Fengyan Dayue of the official family immediately appointed Cheng Rui Industry as the imperial merchant.

Chengrui Industry became famous overnight and became the largest merchant industry in the entire Qingfeng Dynasty, and the status of merchants has also improved a lot.

If the young lady of the Su family is the boss of Cheng Rui Industry, then how could the Su family not be qualified to participate in this council?
Now that Su Chengrui holds Qingfeng's economic lifeline in one hand, who would dare to say that she, the governor, is an empty air without real power?

The faces of the few people who mocked Su Zongyao before were ashen, wishing they could slap themselves twice and take back what they just said.

Here, Li Mao has already begun to read the content of this meeting. Su Chengrui turned his head to look at Yang Qiliang's bleeding hand holding the tile, and asked with the woman's ugly face.

"I saw that Boss Yang's complexion is not very good, but he is not in good health? Do you need me to find a doctor to come and take a look?"

Boss Yang came back to his senses, gritted his teeth, "No need, I'm really feeling unwell, I want to go back to rest first, and leave."

As she spoke, she shook off the fragments in her hand, cupped her hands at Su Chengrui, and without waiting for her to answer, she got up and left.

"Unweaned baby."

Old Xiao sneered, covered the book and got up to leave.

Su Chengrui raised his eyebrows, glanced across the crowd and raised the corners of his lips with a smile, "So everyone here, is there anyone who feels unwell and needs to go home to recuperate?"

As soon as the words fell, Xixi Suosuo's voice sounded.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and several people who were friends with the Yang family got up one after another.

Li Mao looked aside with the booklet in his hand, identified the people who left, crossed off the list one by one with a pen, and handed it to Su Chengrui.

Su Chengrui didn't even look at it, and stamped the list, "Since you have no questions, let's talk about business now."

By the end of the meeting, it was completely dark when everyone went back after dinner.At dinner, those people changed their indifference and alienation attitude before, and kept toasting to the mother and daughter of the Su family, not to mention Su Chengrui, even Su Zongyao drank a lot.

When Su Zongyao smelled of alcohol and was helped into the carriage, she was still in a daze. She took the hand of the servant beside her, "You...you pinch me now."

The servant was startled by her request, and hurriedly bowed, "Small, I dare not."

Su Zongyao pointed to the figure coming out in front, "Do you think that is my daughter?"

Descendants:  …

Owner, how much did you drink?I don't even know my daughter.

Su Zongyao stared blankly at the drunk Su Chengrui in front of him who was helped into the carriage by someone, and his mood went up and down several times in just one day, which made her still feel that she was in a dream, which was unreal.

In order to maintain the Su family business, she has worked so hard for so many years, but she has no choice but to watch it gradually decline in her hands.

The daughter is idle all day long, and she has caused troubles for her all these years.Although Mu'er has become a lot more sensible in the past few years, Su Zongyao doesn't dare to have too high expectations, and only hopes that she can keep the family business well and spend the rest of her life without any worries.

But what she didn't expect was that Su Chengrui directly developed the entire Su family to an unprecedented height.

Su Zongyao was half happy and half worried.

She was happy that Su Zongyao's daughter was so promising, but also worried that the water was too muddy, and she was afraid that Su Chengrui would not be able to deal with it alone.

After Su Chengrui sat in the carriage, he closed his eyes and rested for a while, and then opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and he was no longer drunk like before.

She spread her hand and opened the note she was holding.

This note was slipped into her hand secretly by the servants who helped her when she got into the carriage just now.Su Chengrui glanced at the address left on it, rushed out of the car and ordered, "Go to Yinqiu Pavilion."

The coachman responded and turned the carriage around.

Yinqiu Pavilion is a private house on the outskirts of the city. The courtyard is located in the center of the waterside pavilion, surrounded by willows, which looks very elegant.

Su Chengrui came down to the courtyard led by the servant, and across two winding corridors, he saw the tall and straight figure like a pine sitting behind the bamboo curtain.

The old man lowered his eyes, focused on pouring the tea in his hand, and said without raising his head when he heard the footsteps, "I thought President Su would be too busy to come over tonight."

Su Chengrui raised his eyebrows, "No matter how busy you are, you have to come and see Mr. Xiao."

She picked up the bamboo curtain with the cigarette stick in her hand, and sat down opposite the old man without any politeness, and brought the lit cigarette stick in front of the old man, "Eight-year-old golden leaf, do you want to try it?"

Elder Xiao leaned over, unexpectedly she took the cigarette stick back suddenly.

"Just let you smell it."

Su Chengrui lowered his head and took a few breaths, ignoring the old man's surprised gaze, turned his head and said dissatisfiedly, "After all, that certain person didn't give me any face just now."

Elder Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and then he frowned and laughed lowly, "I'm talking about the picture book you drew for me. There are too many loopholes in the details of the repeating crossbow."

That's why she commented on it after reading it, and then she thought about coming back to revise the drawing.

"I didn't expect the little friend to be quite vengeful, how about offering a cup of tea to the little friend to make amends?"

As she spoke, she picked up the teacup, her face was completely devoid of the sternness she had seen in the council before, the two looked at each other, and suddenly laughed out loud at the same time, their acquaintance obviously had a great friendship before.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Mr. Xiao put away his smile again and said with a serious face, "Our friendship is friendship, and I will not be vague when it is time to do business."

"I read the letter you sent last time. To be honest, there is no problem in mass-manufacturing that batch of weapons, but it is a bit difficult in terms of the budget you gave me, my friend."

Su Chengrui was a little surprised when he heard the words, and then smiled wryly, "It's still difficult? This is already the maximum that my superiors can give me. It's not that you don't understand that hairless person in the household department. Everyone is crying when he speaks." Only poor."

Xiao Lao thought for a while, "It's not that there is no way at all."

Su Chengrui raised his head to look at her, cupped his hands and said, "I would like to hear more about it."

"Little friend, have you heard of Wujing Mine?"

Su Chengrui frowned slightly, "Old Xiao is talking about a new type of ore produced in recent years, right? But although Wujing mine is hard, it is not suitable for making weapons."

"Pure black crystal is indeed not suitable, but it can be mixed into iron ore according to a certain proportion, and the weapons made are much better than those made directly from iron."

Su Chengrui's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Really?"

The price of black crystal ore is much cheaper than iron ore. If this method is feasible, it is entirely possible to build a batch of good weapons within the budget given by the superior.
