After being turned into cannon fodder, I relied on involution to survive

Chapter 71

"I'll buy the news, but whether I want to give you [-]% of the shares depends on whether the information you provide is worth the price."

When she said this, Mrs. Liang actually didn't have much confidence.After all, news only has room for bargaining with buyers when it is not spoken out.Once it's said out loud, it's worthless.

However, to her surprise, Yu Zizhen had no intention of bargaining with her at all.

"Don't worry, it's definitely worth the money." After saying this, Yu Zizhen told Mrs. Liang all the information he had obtained through the system.

After saying what needed to be said, Yu Zizhen stood up with a smile, "It's very difficult to start from the clues, but now you have the answer I revealed in advance, so it shouldn't be very difficult to work backwards, right?"

Before Mrs. Liang could say anything else, Yu Zizhen, who was in a hurry, walked out, "I'm waiting for Mrs. Liang's good news."

It wasn't until Yu Zizhen walked out of the private room and closed the door that Mrs. Liang woke up from a dream. She later realized that she hadn't even had time to ask Yu Zizhen's name and contact information.

However, it was already too late to find someone at this moment. The unknown young master slipped away so fast that it was as if he had disappeared out of thin air.

Mrs. Liang, who was full of thoughts, sat back to her original position, eyes empty and began to digest what Yu Zizhen said.

The maids and old ladies who were guarding her were all hers. Seeing Mrs. Liang's appearance, the two servants who also heard Yu Zizhen's words couldn't help but have a mix of anger and worry on their faces. Complex look.

They scolded the members of the Ji family countless times in their hearts, but before Mrs. Liang spoke, none of them dared to make any noise to disturb her.

"Go and invite the master and the young lady." After a long time, Mrs. Liang said hoarsely.

Hearing this, the maid responded and was about to turn around and go out, but Mrs. Liang changed her mind, "Forget it, I'll go over there and find them."

Ji Haoyang and Ji Yinghui are both in the fragrance room in the backyard of the shop at the moment. Compared with the private room in the front shop, that is the real secret place in Jijia Incense Shop that no one can enter.

Mrs. Liang took several deep breaths until her face and expression completely returned to their normal state. Then she took her confidants to find Ji Haoyang and Ji Yinghui.

Ji Haoyang and Ji Yinghui are currently mixing spices according to the recipe passed down by their fathers and ancestors, and the other is trying new spice combinations themselves.

Seeing Mrs. Liang coming over, Ji Haoyang's Changsui Yuanbao, who was guarding the fragrance room, immediately knocked lightly on the door of the fragrance room.

After receiving the response, he said to Ji Haoyang: "Master, my wife is here."

Ji Haoyang was startled. Normally Mrs. Liang would consciously not come here. What happened today?
He motioned to his daughter to put down the spices in her hands first, "Your mother must have something big to do with us."

When Ji Yinghui heard this, a look of worry appeared on her brows. She washed her hands and left the fragrance room with Ji Haoyang.

There was a small cubicle for people to rest outside the fragrance room. The father and daughter met Mrs. Liang, and the family of three entered the small cubicle directly at Mrs. Liang's signal. "Mammy, you and Yuan Bao are guarding outside." After saying this, Mrs. Liang entered the small compartment with the help of the maid.

Ji Haoyang glanced at his wife, "What happened?"

Mrs. Liang took a deep breath, and after the maid closed the door and exited, she whispered to Ji Haoyang and Ji Yinghui that Yu Zizhen came to her today to "negotiate a big deal."

Ji Haoyang's first reaction was, "This is impossible! That person must have made it up randomly and deliberately alienated us and our tribe!"

"Dad." Ji Yinghui was not as optimistic as her father. She said to her parents with a pale face: "Actually, my grandfather also suspected that my younger brothers and sisters were being harmed."

Ji Haoyang felt as if he was struck by lightning. He turned stiffly to look at his daughter, "W-when did this happen?"

Ji Yinghui's eyes were slightly red, "It was the month when my grandfather asked me if I wanted to stay at home and inherit the family business, and I said yes."

"Originally, my grandfather planned to pick a good and auspicious day to officially record my name in the family tree, and then hold a big banquet to announce the matter to relatives and friends."

"But before the old man could choose a suitable day to open an ancestral hall to worship his ancestors, grandpa Tang and others came to see my grandfather with several children from the clan, saying that they wanted to adopt the children from the clan into our home."

At that time, Old Master Ji's health was already in very bad shape. His image of being smart and capable was fading in the hearts of the tribesmen, and was replaced by his new image of a waning, frail, and easily bullied person.

Old Master Ji couldn't help but feel suspicious because of the tribe's "adoption" theory and their unintentional display of toughness and greed.

But he didn't have much time left at that time. It was already very difficult to arrange his own affairs without alerting his clan members. How could he find more energy and manpower to quietly investigate such a thing? An old story?
When there is no real evidence, Mr. Ji naturally cannot just say that his family members have evil intentions.

With his son's temperament, he said that his son couldn't guard against anything, and would even scare the snake by striking a grass, causing the other party to jump into a panic.

But he couldn't say nothing, so after thinking about it, he told Ji Yinghui, who was by his side almost every day because he had to learn how to make incense, about his suspicions about his tribe.

He told Ji Yinghui that he would let people continue to investigate those old things. If one day, the confidants he sent out did find evidence that the Ji family had evil intentions, then she would immediately bring him to justice. People's suspicions were told to Mrs. Liang.

At that time, Mr. Ji did not expect that those people would be so crazy that they would attack Mrs. Liang and Ji Haoyang directly.

He thought that since they had mentioned adoption, they would only be thinking about adoption for at least three to five years, but unexpectedly, they wanted to directly get involved in their Ji family's spice shop not long after he was buried. .

If Yu Zizhen hadn't interfered for points, the fate of the three members of the Ji family would have followed the plot of the original book soon.

"Damn it! How can these people be so, so heartless!" Ji Haoyang couldn't trust Yu Zizhen, a stranger who suddenly appeared, but he had almost blind admiration and trust in his father. As soon as Ji Yinghui moved out, Ji Haoyang He immediately became convinced that the tribesmen had evil intentions.
