Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 1639 1298. Ways to make money (Facing financial problems, Cao Yunfei has a headache and has no choice)
  As soon as Wu Xuanyue left with his front foot, Cao Yunfei came back with his rear foot. The two missed the opportunity to meet each other.

After Cao Yunfei returned, he saw Ji Wuchang with a thoughtful look on his face. He looked around again and asked -

"Where is Second Miss?"

Ji Wuchang suddenly woke up and replied: "I went back to my room to rest. I said I would wait for the important person."

After Cao Yunfei heard this, he looked suspiciously, and he had doubts about Ji Wuchang's attitude.

"Mr. Ji, what's wrong? I've never seen you so restless before. Did something happen?"

Ji Wuchang was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly retracted his weird expression, and laughed and said perfunctorily, "What can happen? Wuchang is just guessing what the second lady is going to do next."

Cao Yunfei was stunned for a moment, then immediately became energetic and asked curiously: "What? Didn't that girl tell you her future plans?"

Ji Wuchang sighed sadly and laughed: "The second young lady is thoughtful and decisive, but does not follow the routine. What she thinks, naturally she will not reveal too much to Wu Chang. Previously, Wu Chang had deliberately inquired about the second young lady's future plans. But she said a word of 'wait' to me in an understatement! It was considered a perfunctory matter."

Hearing this, Cao Yunfei held his chin and thought deeply. He really couldn't figure out what this girl wanted to do next.

Cao Yunfei sighed sadly, since he couldn't think of anything, don't think so much. Not to mention wasting brain cells, he might have made a wrong judgment. Just listen to the girl's arrangements.

However, Cao Yunfei's worries are still unresolved. Seeing that there is no one in front of him, Cao Yunfei just takes off his disguise and asks——

"Mr. Ji, we spent a lot on this trip. How long can we last with the money on our books now?"

Ji Wuchang couldn't help but tremble. As expected, Cao Yunfei still asked the key point of the question.

Although Wu Xuanyue's timely support relieved the urgent need of the Cao family's army, Ji Wuchang was suddenly stumped as to how to explain this mismatch to his superior.

Ji Wuchang thought for a while and followed Cao Yunfei's words: "In the past few days, all the food, drinks, and lodging have come from our accounts. Town Master Cao naturally knows that the silver we have brought this time is limited, and we have reached the point of exhaustion. .”

Hearing this, Cao Yunfei frowned, and he clicked his tongue: "How can it be spent so fast? You obviously brought enough money before, but now you have only a few days to work, and you don't have any money?"

Ji Wuchang had a bitter look on his face and said helplessly: "Master Cao, think about it, our food and drink expenses these days are not high-end? Just say that the cost of that night in Xiangyun Pavilion is enough for us guys to be out for ten years." A few days of expenses. Wu Chang knew that he brought three girls with him this time, especially the second young lady who was the sweetheart of the town owner. The town owner did not want to wrong the second young lady and wanted to give her the best in everything, but... But this good thing , it’s just expensive!”

As soon as these words came out, Cao Yunfei raised his head and sighed, thinking to himself: This man has to lose money if he wants to save face. The extravagance and waste in chasing women is just for a show. He didn't expect that the expense would be so big?
  When Ji Wuchang saw Cao Yunfei's embarrassed expression, he suddenly felt evil intentions and deliberately tried to test it -

"If not... let's find an excuse to return to Western Xinjiang, Lord? This way we can maintain dignity and save money, killing two birds with one stone."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Yunfei flew into a rage: "Return to Xijiang? How is it possible!! If I don't take that dead girl away this time, I, Cao Yunfei, will never go back alone!" Hearing this, Ji Wuchang snickered and shook his head. Fan Zi pretended to be embarrassed: "Then what should we do? The current situation is like this... If Mayor Cao follows the second lady, the expenses will continue to come out, and we are not running a bank... How can this be? Okay?"

This question really stumped Cao Yunfei. He frowned and thought, and after sighing for a while, he asked, "Didn't we save two cities a while ago? This tax..."

As soon as Cao Yunfei mentioned the word tax, Ji Wuchang immediately interrupted and refused immediately.

"Have you forgotten, Town Master Cao? There is an ancestral precept from our ancestors. The old city will be revived and everything will be renovated within three years. No taxes can be collected to increase the pressure on the people in the area. This is the ancestral precept and the rule! Town Master Cao must not do it just to please. The rules are broken because of the sweetheart - if this is the case, the people will curse the town leader, because a woman will increase the burden on the people, and the second lady will definitely become a monster in the eyes of the people in Western Xinjiang in the future."

Hearing this, Cao Yunfei scratched his head and went crazy. He really couldn't think of a way to make money in life. He was obviously the king of a country, but he stopped making progress with money. Where would he put his face?
  Ji Wuchang looked at the situation and was secretly happy, knowing that he was once an unmotivated town leader, and now he finally had the motivation to expand his finances. Why not take this opportunity and give him some good advice?

Ji Wuchang coughed dryly and said, "Actually, there are countless ways to make money. It depends on whether Town Master Cao is willing to take this step."

As soon as Ji Wuchang said these words, Cao Yunfei immediately became interested, raised his head suddenly, and asked about the meaning behind his words.

"Mr. Ji is very resourceful. Please give me some advice on Mingjin."

Ji Wuchang walked up and down swinging his fan, deliberately showing off, pretending to be thoughtful, and said slowly: "Power and wealth do not separate families. Over the years, our Yimen has always been working on our own business, but we have never thought about it. By cooperating with powerful families, we have lost too many opportunities to make money."

Upon hearing this, Cao Yunfei's expression suddenly changed and he immediately objected: "What? Let me cooperate with a wealthy family?! Impossible!"

Ji Wuchang was not surprised at all by Cao Yunfei's radical attitude. Many times Cao Yunfei had raised objections to his proposals. Naturally, it was not surprising that he had objections this time.

However, today is different from those days. Cao Yunfei once had a strong desire for money from time to time, but now, no matter how noble he is, Cao Yunfei has to give up his waist for five buckets of rice at critical moments for his sweetheart.

Ji Wuchang shook his fan and raised his eyebrows, deliberately stretching Cao Yunfei and saying: "Then...should the town leader still pursue the second lady? This girl, can you just rely on your words? How can you be sincere without something practical?"

Sure enough, just as Ji Wuchang had planned, as soon as these words came out, Cao Yunfei suddenly looked bitter and became troubled.

Ji Wuchang took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, and with a seemingly gentle smile, he said words that shook Cao Yunfei's mind——

"Every bustle in the world is for profit, and all the turmoil in the world is for profit. Why does Town Lord Cao always limit his development to his own country? If he closes himself off and keeps to himself, Western Xinjiang will fall behind sooner or later. Besides, Town Lord Cao is also from a wealthy family. After that, what’s wrong with us doing business with a wealthy family because of our close ties?”

Having said this, Cao Yunfei was stunned for a moment, then thought about it, it was the same reason, why didn't he just ignore it?
