Chapter 129 Let’s do it, don’t let others know
The night was deep and still bitingly cold.

Fang Jin sneaked into the house separated by a wall. It was so quiet that he didn't feel that anyone was living there.

Under the afterglow of the moonlight, Fang Jin checked the kitchen. The number of kitchen utensils could tell how many people lived in the house.

Looking at this bowl of chopsticks, there isn't much rice, food, and vegetables. Could it be that there are only three or four people living in this house?

After leaving the kitchen, Fang Jin went to the ear room again. Just as he was about to open the door and go in, he heard the sound of breaking through the air behind him.

Fang Jin immediately jumped up and saw an arrow piercing the door panel where he had just been.

"Sneaky, what are you doing at my house?"

Fang Jin saw the person who made the move, his whole body was wrapped tightly, only his eyes were exposed.

Does this person look like this when sleeping late at night?
Just a thought flashed through Fang Jin's mind and he was ready to leave.

This person is very murderous and it is useless to say more.

"Is my place a place where you can come and leave whenever you want?"

Pei Wenjing actually already knows Fang Jin's identity. It seems that Cui Ti is also very worried about herself!

It just so happened that he also wanted to see Fang Jin's skills.

Soon, Pei Wenjing and Fang Jin were fighting together. Under the night, two people stood out from the night, dressed in ordinary clothes, one man and one woman.

"Isn't the master leaving soon? Why are you making such a fuss?"

"My close relatives are next door and we can't recognize each other. Do you think he feels bitter?"

"Anyway, tomorrow, we, husband and wife, will be guarding the house for the master. Do you want to go to the next door for a walk, so we can get acquainted with each other?"

"let's talk tomorrow!"

Fang Jin became more and more frightened as he fought. This person was too ruthless. Didn't he say he was a businessman?

He didn't want to fight to the death, so he found an opening and immediately used the force to retreat. He jumped up and away from the house.

Naturally, Pei Wenjing would not chase him. He would leave tomorrow and someone would take care of his family for him.

The next day, Cui Ti, farewelled by the Pei family, took a carriage and left Liangzhou City.

"Miss, didn't Fang Jin say that the man living next door doesn't seem like a good person, so we just left like this?"

On the way, Jade asked in confusion.

"If we don't leave and Fang Jin is recognized by the other party, wouldn't it make the Pei family even more implicated?"

Cui Ti said: "There are women and children in the house. Even if the man next door is fierce, he knows that women and children will not threaten him or anything."

"Miss, you are still thoughtful."

Jade thought deeply and said, "I can finally go back. Miss, everything you have done for the Pei family, even if anyone knows about it, they can say that you have both love and loyalty."

Cui Ti's eyes darkened: "I just don't want myself to have any regrets. I...have no regrets!"

Shen Ru didn't know that Cui Ti had left Liangzhou City and that the drying area in the north courtyard of her home had been set up.

"Cui Xi, An Qiao, Yaoyao, from now on, you are the only one who can come in to the North Courtyard, and only you know what I do."

Shen Ru called the three maids and gave them serious instructions.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Ru informed the three of them what he wanted to do.

"Miss, selling illegal salt is...a serious crime!"

Cuixi was surprised and said, "How dare this governor dare to plot against Chen Cang in such a secret way?"

Yes, Shen Ru said this was Xiao Wujin's order.

"There are so many people in the governor's office that it's hard to do this, so it's in our house. It's a shame you bought such a big house in the first place!"

Shen Ru came casually, "I'm afraid that my parents will know about what's going on at home and be frightened. So, you three, you know how important you are!"

As Shen Ru spoke, she patted Cui Xi on the shoulder and encouraged An Qiao and Yaoyao.

"If we want to take root in Liangzhou, we must naturally deal with the relationship with the governor. We must do this secretly, do you understand?"

"Miss, we understand!" The three of them nodded in unison.

"Well, then, let's get started, oh, lock the door!"

Shen Ru had already put the coarse salt in the room in the north courtyard.

In the Governor's Mansion, Xiao Wujin had obtained a lot of fine salt after several days of refining.

After packing some of the fine salt, Xiao Wujin summoned Yan Shaoqing.

"Oh, this is in pretty good condition!"

Yan Shaoqing has seen the fine salt. It is indeed fine and the color is very white.

"Where are you going to sell this fine salt?"

Yan Shaoqing asked: "I'm not saying this in a negative way, but if this is sold in the northwest, Ganzhou will dig up three feet of the ground, and they will dig out you as well."

"Do you think they can give up trying to compete with Ganzhou for food?"

"Sell to the Western Region."

Xiao Wujin said: "I heard there is a shortage of salt over there."

"Hey, this is to use my Yan family's caravan. Mr. Xiao, you are very smart in your calculation. Borrow my money to buy coarse salt, and then ask my Yan family to sell you fine salt. Isn't that right? Do you want my Yan family to give you money?"

"I don't understand this kind of business, you know best."

Xiao Wujin said with a straight face, "I believe your help was not in vain."

"That's right, let's talk about how to divide it."

Yan Shaoqing smiled, and his smile sounded like a fox.

Only the two of them knew what they talked about. When Yan Shaoqing left, he suddenly remembered something.

"I don't know what's going on next door recently. My servants said that the swill flowing out from next door feels very salty."

Xiao Wujin's expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard anything. He didn't want Yan Shaoqing to know that this fine salt had anything to do with Shen Ru.

Fine salt will continue to be refined, and it’s time to take the time to meet the Pei family.

"Lu Yi, where did the Pei family live last time?"

"Sir, are you going to invite the Pei family over?"

After Lu Yi said that, he asked, "The Pei family lives just a block away from the Shen family. I asked about that house and have already bought it."

"That Cui Ti bought it, right?"

"Well, that's true."

"She is really an emotional woman. If she were to get a copy of Ginseng, her mother's family would be accused of colluding with Prince Jing's Mansion..."

"Then the Lord also wants to accept the Pei family child as his disciple. If someone..."

"Have I... not been involved enough?"

Xiao Wujin said calmly, "I am alone, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Seeing this, Lu Yi retreated to invite the Pei family.

In a shop on Liangzhou Street, Shen Ping was bargaining with the shopkeeper while holding her mother Qian's embroidery.

"My mother made this embroidery by herself. Look, this is Jiangnan technique. It's only worth two taels of silver for so much?"

"Yes, just two taels. If you think it's too little, take it back."

If the shopkeeper hadn't seen that Shen Ping was not dressed like a poor family, he would have yelled at her.

The stuff is good stuff, and two taels of silver is already a very high price!

"Can't we really have more?"

Shen Ping was very confused. Two taels of silver felt really small!
"Shen Ping, aren't you following Shen Ru and enjoying spicy food? Why, you still want to sell embroidery?"

Shen Ping felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. She turned around suddenly and saw the gloomy Shen Ming!
