Chapter 61 Doubt
As a result, more water accumulates downstream, and all crops along the way will be submerged in five days at the fastest and two weeks at the latest.
By that time, people were dying of hunger, and the matter of changing children to eat was no longer a horrifying rumor, but became a lingering sorrow in everyone's memory.
If she hadn't taken out all her dowry in her previous life, I'm afraid the entire county and prince's palace would have had to go through this.
Since then, her life in the county palace has become increasingly difficult.
Thinking of this, Dou Lianyi's eyes gradually became filled with a hint of hatred.
I don't know if it was because Dou Lianyi had been silent for too long. Several shopkeepers looked at each other and thought she had been persuaded by Boss Qin.
A more courageous shopkeeper then cautiously said: "Boss, why don't you give me a convincing reason? After all, there are so many guys under you who are relying on you to make a living."
Being interrupted like this, the hatred in Dou Lianyi's eyes quickly subsided like a tide.
"I had a dream a few days ago," Dou Lianyi thought about it, and finally found an excuse and said, "In the dream, an old man told me that the opportunity to make a fortune was in the northwest, and it was also related to water. When I woke up, I wonder if this may be related to the rain that has been falling some time ago, in case the crop harvest is affected..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by one of the older shopkeepers.
"Boss, how can business be such a child's play? It's just a dream and you take it seriously. If the money is wasted, then everyone will drink the northwest wind!"
At this time, another shopkeeper hesitated and said: "But Lao Li, the things in this dream are a bit mysterious. My boss had such a dream for no reason. Maybe it is really God's will?"
"Old Chen, what nonsense are you talking about? If all of us doing business believe this, we won't be able to make any money at all!"
Shopkeeper Li frowned, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
"Hey, there's nothing to argue about. Anyway, my old water-traveling gang must worship the Water Queen whenever they go to sea. Isn't this just for peace of mind?"
Shopkeeper Lin is a simple and honest person, and his words are to the point. He can lighten the atmosphere with a few words.
But in the end, the question was posed to Dou Lianyi, and the three of them looked over in unison, making Qin Mu, who was drinking tea slowly beside him, seem to be joining in the fun.
After a moment, Dou Lianyi spoke slowly: "If you make money this time, everyone will be happy. If you really lose money, I will make up for it."
"Also, in addition to food, I also need you to purchase a large amount of medicinal materials."
Dou Lianyi took out the paper he had prepared and handed it to the four people present.
"Baiji, mugwort leaves, Platycladus orientalis leaves, Panax notoginseng..."
Shopkeeper Chen read out the names of the medicinal materials on it one by one. He glanced at Dou Lianyi with some doubts and asked, "My boss, aren't these all medicinal materials for external use to stop bleeding? Why do you have to stock up so many at once?"
This time Dou Lianyi did not answer, but knocked on the table and said solemnly: "Just do as I say."
Seeing that several shopkeepers were still hesitant, Dou Lianyi reassured with a calm face: "In short, I will bear all the worst consequences, you don't need to worry."
Qin Mu never spoke, but silently took everything in his eyes.
After several shopkeepers left, he stood up and asked Dou Lianyi to resign.
"Boss Qin, don't you have any questions to ask me?"
Seeing him like that, Dou Lianyi became curious. "Then what do you think I should ask you, Miss Dou?"
Dou Lianyi stared at him and said without blinking: "Ask me how I can believe in a dream."
Qin Mu raised her eyebrows and asked, "Miss Dou is a person with ideas. She doesn't need to report everything to me. I believe that Miss Dou must have her own reasons for doing this, but it's just inconvenient to say."
"Isn't Boss Qin afraid of losing money?"
"In business, there will be losses if you make profits," Qin Mu said in a relaxed tone, nonchalantly: "It's just that I have a hunch that Miss Dou won't let me lose money."
After saying that, without waiting for Dou Lianyi to respond, he nodded slightly, turned around and left gracefully.
After leaving the room, the expression on Qin Mu's face immediately became cold and stern.
"northwest."
He murmured these two words, and then smiled interestingly, "I don't believe in dreams. You'd better pray that your dreams are not true, otherwise there will be a lot to investigate."
"Boss Qin, what do you think of what my boss just said?"
Shopkeeper Li in front saw Qin Mu lagging behind them, so he paused and asked respectfully.
"I didn't pay much attention to it. Since Miss Dou is your boss, you can just listen to her."
When Qin Mu raised his face, the expression on his face had returned to its usual calmness.
Hearing this, shopkeeper Li showed some disapproval in his eyes. After shaking his head, he flattered Qin Mu: "But this boss is a woman's house after all. Who knows these business matters? It's up to you, Boss Qin." Just give me some more advice."
"Shopkeeper Li," the smile on Qin Mu's face was slightly cold, and there was a hint of undetectable irritation in his eyes, but his tone still sounded calm, "If you have any objections to Miss Dou's instructions, you can tell her in person. , instead of arranging the words of his employer behind his back."
Hearing this, shopkeeper Li was already a little embarrassed, but he still responded stiffly: "Boss Qin, you heard it just now. How could my boss listen to what we said? She insists on going her own way. What if the account is in deficit?" If so, is it possible that the owner is really willing to make up for this loss?"
"Since she has promised you, she will naturally do it."
Qin Mu originally had something urgent to do, but now he was even more irritated. He frowned and didn't want to talk nonsense to Shopkeeper Li. He dropped these words coldly and turned around to leave.
Shopkeeper Li was left standing there with his face green and white, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Three days later it will be the Double Ninth Festival.
This time the Double Ninth Festival family banquet at the Prince's Palace was much grander than the last birthday party. Early in the morning, Lu Lianzhi dressed herself up like the mistress of the Prince's Palace. She specially put her hair into a high bun and embellished it with several silver pearls. The ball is in it, a red gold peony hairpin with beads is inserted sideways, and a few strands of silver wire hang down by the side of the ear.
She was wearing a rouge red Sichuan brocade skirt, with the tail reaching to the ground and swaying, and a gauze dress with peonies embroidered all over the body. The thin texture made her even more gorgeous.
Standing in front of the courtyard gate, people who didn't know it would have thought that this banquet was specially held for her.
Even Lu Shangxuan, who came to pick her up, couldn't help but frown and remind her.
"Lian'er, you are dressing a little too ostentatiously today. I'm afraid my mother will be unhappy after seeing it."
