But the bright moon shines on the ditch

Chapter 56
On this day, An Jiu held a Hongmen banquet. Xu Zhiliu went to the party again. When he came back, his clothes were all wet and he was very drunk.

After Wu Yin finished his breakfast, he went to the inspection department to order a meal. Then he summoned his confidants and gave them many detailed instructions.This confidant was brought from Beijing by him. He was not a son of the Wu family, but only served Wu Yin.

Follow orders without hesitation.

After waiting for the people to leave, Wu Yin finally felt uneasy and led a group of people on horseback into the street.

There are a lot of things going on in the town right now. The inspection department conducted a search, but no one knew what the banner was, and Jingdezhen was thrown into chaos.Xia Ying was worried about the lack of manpower and was happy to see the success. She only suffered from An Jiu. There was a fire in the front yard and an attack in the backyard. The frightened bird was in a hurry and all the plans were ruined.

Xu Zhiliu was able to return home intact. It was not that he had not suffered at all, but only a small crime. Thanks to Wu Yin who took the lead.

The two of them talked some more about "self-care". Seeing that Xu Zhiliu was really drunk, confused and almost fell asleep, Wu Yin took the opportunity to explore: "What, I forgot to ask earlier, you and the Anqing Kiln... How far has the position come?"

The person who thought he was drowsy suddenly opened his eyes strangely after hearing these words, and his eyes were clear.

How could you be a little tipsy? !

Wu Yin marveled repeatedly, begged for mercy again and again, picked up his clothes and ran away.

The next day, Xu Zhiliu complained that he was ill.

Therefore, when Wang Yu was sitting in the main hall of No. [-] Porcelain Store with Liang Peiqiu's golden sword, the person who came to him late was not Xu Zhiliu, but the housekeeper Zhang Lei.

No. [-] Porcelain Company has been the largest dealer of Hutian kiln folk porcelain for decades since it settled in Jingdezhen. The two families are one, both an alliance and an in-law.Up to now, the real primary and secondary relationship behind No. [-] Porcelain Store is no longer known to outsiders.

However, Wang Yu doesn't care who the real head of No. [-] Porcelain Company is. What he wants to do is to let the porcelain dealers in Jingdezhen and even Jiangxi know that he has a split between Anqing Kiln and Hutian Kiln, and he will never leave any part of it again in the future. feelings.

The reputation of No. [-] Porcelain Store was perfect for building momentum. Later, Wang Yu took Liang Peiqiu to No. [-] Porcelain Store and No. [-] Porcelain Store. Zhang Lei stepped in and drove them back politely.

At this point, Liang Peiqiu knew that Xu Zhiliu was ill. As time went by, there were rumors that he had a quarrel with the Fox King and was abandoned. He was afraid of being laughed at and hid at home and did not dare to go out.

Xu Zhiliu was not a timid person, so Liang Peiqiu just listened and didn't take it to heart.Pian Wang Yunxian had not yet gotten over what had happened before. Sometimes he was cautious, and sometimes he was making innuendoes. The times were too many. He was displeased with Peiqiu and cursed him a few times, thinking that this guy was going to jump in and quarrel with him. Unexpectedly, he smiled and looked completely helpless. Shameless.

He has made a lot of progress recently under the steward Si Liu. He is familiar with the situation in the accounting room. From the input and output items in the account book, he has also learned all the affairs at the kiln entrance. He generally knows how to run a big business with two businesses: baking and cooking. The kiln owner needs to do something.

"In the past, I heard people say that people in this industry have a lot of knowledge, not only in terms of craftsmanship, but also that there are as many as 72 businesses that are jointly operated, and sometimes there are more than one red shop. When I count them in detail, I can't even count them. It turns out that If you don’t believe me, I finally understand after reading the account books. You don’t know how many account books our family has. If you stack them up, they can go around the warehouse. "

He and Liang Peiqiu talked about the "deep and shallow" in the accounting room. In the past, he could not say even a single word. Now he talks about it in a clear and coherent manner, and it can also be understood by laymen, which is considered to be a skill.

"But I only looked at the external account books, and some were locked in the cabinet. The old man didn't show them to me, so I don't know what secrets are hidden in them. If I find an opportunity tomorrow, I will definitely..." He said rubbing his hands Hands, he chuckled.

Liang Peiqiu looked at the vivid light on the young man's face and felt very happy.

Patting his shoulder, she suddenly felt something and said: "Why do I have the feeling that... my family has a girl growing up?"

Wang Yunxian immediately put aside her hand and said angrily: "I am a seven-foot tall man, what are you talking about? You are a woman...!"

Finished speaking.

Both were stunned.

After a while, Wang Yunxian came to his senses first and remembered the scene when Wan Niang changed into women's clothes and dragged him running along Gongguan Road on the night of Wan Niang's accident. When he looked at her, he really felt like "I have a young girl in my family." Feeling of joy.

Somewhere in her heart suddenly collapsed, sinking deeply, popping, filling her from then on.

Every frame of her smile, every trace of tear; every scene of looking back, every inch of sadness.

Now, in her slightly surprised and panicked eyes, he slowly raised the corners of his mouth, making faces at her as if he was trying to tease her, and running away while doing so.

"You must have been right! You said that you are so delicate. Even if a girl grows up, it will be you and not me. You are a dignified little god. You will have to walk out a lot in the future. You are too thin-skinned. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to blush after being teased by someone casually! Speaking of which, I am a veteran in this area, how about you give me some training first, and I can reluctantly teach you a few tricks? "

Liang Peiqiu breathed a sigh of relief and glared at him fiercely: "Who dares to laugh at me and ask for bribes openly, Wang Yunxian, stop right there!"

The two had a fight, and Liang Peiqiu was still frightened before leaving. She wanted to say something, but in the end she was speechless.

In the afternoon, under the arrangement of Wang Yu, she visited No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] Porcelain Stores again. It was like fighting guerrilla warfare, tossing Zhang Lei so hard that in the end he grabbed her sleeves and refused to let go. Pleading: "Little God, please let me go. You know clearly that these porcelain shops have signed agreements with our Hutian kiln and will never cooperate with your Anqing kiln. Why do you come here to provoke me again and again?" "

Liang Peiqiu chuckled: "What did Manager Zhang say? My family is sincerely cooperating. How can it be a provocation? Furthermore, if you believe that they will not cooperate with my family, why bother to personally watch?"

Zhang Lei was at a loss for words. He didn't expect that she, a half-year-old who had only just started to take charge of things, was actually not weak in eloquence.He had no choice but to pretend to be in trouble and tell the truth: "There have been a lot of things going on in the town recently, and my boss is afraid of chaos, so he told me to be careful. I'm just afraid of something unexpected."

This would have happened a few years ago. Where would Zhang Lei have been needed to personally come forward? With the golden lacquer signboard of Hutian Kiln there, even if Anqing Kiln gave it away, I don’t think the One, Two and Three Porcelain Shop would be interested!But in the past, there was betrayal in the Changnan kiln, and later there were fights between officials. In today's world, there is nothing strange that cannot happen!

"No, my boss is exhausted and sick. Otherwise, it would be my turn to come here. I would definitely come out to entertain the little god in person. You said that you are exhausted from running to the porcelain shop every day. How about I report back to my boss? , please give him an idea? It’s just that he is sick, and he might be infected by the disease when he sees you... What do you think we should do? "

Seeing that Zhang Lei had brought Xu Zhiliu out to run against her, and that she would disturb her employer's recovery if she didn't stop, Liang Peiqiu stopped talking and expressed her sincerity and determination to cooperate with the porcelain shop owner before leaving.

After walking around the neighborhood, I realized what Zhang Lei meant by "fighting between officials". It turned out that another major event happened in the past two days -

The Ceramics Industry Supervisory Committee was about to be established. As the two largest government agencies in the area, Fuliang Yamen and the Royal Kiln Factory held meetings for several days to form a supervisory committee team. However, the two were not in the same mind. It lasted for several days, and the night before yesterday even alerted the inspection department's Yamen.

As a result, it may be difficult for the Ceramic Industry Supervisory Committee to be established for a while, and the three kilns and nine committees will still be the most powerful.

Wu Yin watched a good show, and Le Diandian went to report to Xu Zhiliu.

Anjiu was a pottery supervisor personally sent by the emperor. His duties were to assist local management of pottery affairs. It is said that Tao Zheng had nothing to do with him. He only needed to supervise the daily life of the imperial kiln factory. But once the Pottery Industry Supervision Committee was established, It will inevitably affect the co-burning households of the Royal Kiln Factory, and most of these co-burning households are members of the Three Kilns and Nine Clubs.

With this in mind, An Jiu listed dozens of key points at once, each of which hit the point - Wanshou Porcelain is around the corner. Anyone who dares to affect the normal operation of the imperial kiln factory will rectify the three kilns and nine guilds under the guise of supervision. If the households are burned, don't blame him for turning his back on others.

If it stands in his way, even if it is the Ceramic Industry Supervisory Committee that is supported by all people under the New Deal, he will eradicate it.

An Jiujiu said that in front of "Wanshou Porcelain", even someone as cool as Xia Ying would not dare to step forward.Everyone knows that the emperor loves porcelain as much as his life, especially the tribute that can live forever and be closely related to the prosperity of the country. Who dares to offend the emperor?Besides, Xia Ying had only been in office for less than three months, and he had already had a lot of troubles.

The emperor was not happy with his radical style, and Xia Ying knew it well, but was also afraid of offending the local powerful by acting too hastily.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and a group of cultural people who usually cursed without using curse words ended up acting violently and wailing. The scene was as exciting as it could be.

"Didn't you see that Zhang Wensi was busy turning in two directions at one moment, and then he was a villain? In the end, he lost all his strength and fainted. I don't know if he was just pretending, but in that scene, to be honest , I have never seen such a thing in my whole life.”

Just like clowns on the stage, each one wears three layers of masks, with painted eyebrows and flaming red lips. After you sing, I will appear on the stage, and they will make trouble day and night for several days. Even the body of the military attache could not bear it, so Xia Ying and An Jiu sat on one side each, sitting upright like a pine tree.

When the show was over, they saw their calves twitching and their soles fluttering, requiring help before they could walk.

That was it, no one was willing to admit defeat and threatened to discuss it again.

"They are noisy. I am waiting to eat melon seeds and watch a show. There is no need to contribute, just to have fun. Let's discuss it. We will discuss it for three days and three nights. It is best to send them to the hospital. It will also save my inspection department trouble. .”

Wu Yin laughed several times and said, "Your disease is really clever and just right! Let me see, you will have to linger on the bed for at least ten days before you can recover."

Seeing his radiant face, Xu Zhiliu wiped away the tiredness of catching people before and joked: "Can the cook take advantage of me?"

"If you take advantage of it, there's no one better than my eldest wife!"

Wu Yin pointed to the sword in his arms.

He studied under a famous master and has excellent swordsmanship. Although he has never been on the battlefield, he is a child of an unusual family and is not afraid of blood.Xu Zhiliu didn't ask what happened to the person who followed him that night.

I asked, fearing that my mind would be shaken.

But if you don’t ask, you are only deceiving yourself and others.

Just as he was talking, Shi Nian hurriedly entered the door and pointed outside. Not far away, he saw Xu Zhong running towards him with his old legs swinging.

Xu Zhiliu smiled bitterly, and Wu Yin understood.

Although he was extremely smart and could avoid trouble outside, he couldn't help but feel helpless at home.

The show has just begun, and people can’t sit still.

Wu Yin then stood up and left.

Before leaving, he left the next sentence: "You pretended to be sick and escaped. I saw that the other side was not in peace. They have already entered the house and robbed your business. I'm afraid this matter will be disturbed. Are you planning to sit back and ignore it?" Let her fend for herself, or...?"
