Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 13
"As long as you get through this period safely, you will be able to earn back all your losses later! Do you know that if any clues are found now, all business will be lost!" the prefect of Yangzhou said angrily.

A trace of disdain flashed in the man's eyes, and he said: "I think your lord is worried about the official title on your head! Over the years, I have given you a lot, and it is time for you to contribute. You only think about it." Wouldn't it be too unkind to ask me to stop business!"

If he can take the position of leader of this gang from the previous leader, he is naturally not a good person to deal with!In his opinion, although the magistrate of Yangzhou has made it convenient for them these years, his appetite is getting bigger and bigger!Especially in the past two years, it has really gotten worse!He has so many brothers to support, but he has to share nearly half of the profit, which is too high!

Now it's just a brat coming to Weifu for a private visit, so he's frightened like this.If something big happens in the future, why don't you just explain them to them?

"We are grasshoppers on the same rope now! Do you think I'm scaring you?" The magistrate of Yangzhou couldn't help but have a headache.If I had known that this person was so difficult to control, I should have withdrawn when the old gang leader died, so I wouldn't be as worried as I am today.

"My lord, don't worry too much! It's not the first time in the past two years that Beijing has sent someone here. Which time you didn't handle it well? I believe that my lord will do the same this time, and nothing will go wrong." Stick gave me another sweet date.

Nowadays, the magistrate of Yangzhou is also riding a tiger.At this time, I can only bite the bullet.

It wasn't until dawn that the prefect of Yangzhou returned to the mansion.When Ba Ye got the news, he stopped.

It's just that when Ba Ye was about to close the net, an urgent report came from Beijing, asking him to return to Beijing immediately, and all affairs here were suspended.

Looking at the imperial decree in his hand, Ba Ye frowned.

"Master, it's time for dinner." Chen Guo cautiously reminded him from the side.

"Crack!" With a sound, Ba Ye slapped the imperial decree on the table, and as soon as he exerted force with his hand, the imperial decree was crumpled into a ball and became crumpled.

Chen Guo stepped back in fright, and immediately lowered her head.

Their master has always been known for his good temper, and he always smiles gently at everyone.Today, I'm afraid I'm very angry.

At this time, he didn't dare to say anything, he could only wait on the sidelines.

After a long time, Master Ba breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's pass on the meal."

Chen Guo also heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and was about to go out, when Ba Ye said, "Put away the imperial decree. We will pack up after dinner later, and we will leave for Beijing tomorrow."

"Huh?" Chen Guo was stunned.

Although he is just a slave and doesn't know anything about court affairs.But what my grandfather is busy with these days, he can see it clearly.

Seeing that the work is about to be done, how can I go back to Beijing?Isn't it all in vain to work here for half a month?
"What are you doing in a daze, don't hurry up!" Ba Ye's tone showed a trace of impatience.

Chen Guo didn't dare to delay any longer, so she hurried out to give orders.

For this day's dinner, Ba Ye only moved two chopsticks and it was useless.

Today's imperial decree really made him so full of anger that he couldn't even eat it.

At the same time, the prefect of Yangzhou also received a letter from Beijing.After reading it, his worries for many days were swept away, and a big smile appeared on his face.

From Yangzhou to the capital, you have to go by water and by land.

After nearly a month of sailing, the Zhang family's boat also arrived at its destination.

"Madam Mao, our master has arranged a carriage, let's go to the capital together." Madam Zhang warmly invited.

This is what my master ordered when I left Yangzhou.Although I don't know that the Mao family's relatives in Beijing are senior officials, I don't know if they will send someone to pick them up.But since they have already taken their family's boat, the rest will naturally be arranged.Even if Mrs. Chen and Mao Tongtong didn't sit down, their intentions were fulfilled.

"Thank you Madam Zhang for taking care of me along the way. Tong Tong's uncle said that she would send someone to pick her up. Don't bother me." Chen refused with a smile.

Standing behind Mrs. Zhang, Zhang Sirui was looking at Mao Tongtong coldly.Mao Tongtong didn't bother to pay attention to the second-year girl, standing behind Mao and looking at the pier.

Chen said someone was coming to pick her up, but she didn't see a carriage on the pier?This is Tianjin, and there is still some distance from the capital, should we walk there?
"Then wait for the person who picks you up to arrive, and let's go." Mrs. Zhang was very thoughtful.After all, this place is unfamiliar, and she was afraid that it would be bad if something happened to her.

"Thank you very much." This time Chen didn't delay.After all, she didn't know the way, and the people around her were all women. If it was dark and there were no one waiting, I'm afraid she would have to trouble Mrs. Zhang again.

Fortunately, after waiting for a long time, Mao Tongtong saw a carriage approaching the pier in the distance.

Mrs. Chen was still talking to Mrs. Zhang and didn't pay attention.

After a while, a man about 40 years old hurried over.

"Miss, the old slave delayed his trip on the way, and he came late, so you have been waiting for a long time." The man was a little excited when he saw Mrs. Chen, and quickly bowed.

"It's Chen An!" Chen's face was also happy, and said: "It's not too late, we just arrived!"

"Mrs. Zhang, the person sent by the family has arrived, so let's not bother you. I won't say much about thank you. I will come to the door to thank you when I return to Yangzhou." Chen said to Mrs. Zhang.

"Madam, you are welcome. With Madam on this journey, the journey will not be boring. It is good that someone from your side will pick you up." Madam Zhang smiled.

The two families said their goodbyes, and Mao Tongtong followed Mrs. Chen closely and followed the one named Chen An to the pier.

"The third master originally arranged for the old slave to leave in three days. It's just that the carriage broke down on the way, which delayed the time. Fortunately, the eldest lady arrived today. If she arrived yesterday, the old slave will be guilty." Chen Anyi Said with an apologetic face.

This third master is talking about Mao Tongtong's uncle who is a Beijing official.The Chen family has four children, the Chen family is the eldest daughter, the uncle and the second master are both descendants of the concubine, and the third master is the only biological brother of the Chen family.

"It's better to catch up sooner than later, isn't there no delay!" Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "Old Chen, I see that you have become more and more energetic in the past few years in Beijing."

"Thanks to the eldest lady, the old slave is still in good health. Probably because of the feng shui at the emperor's feet!" Chen An joked.

Mao Tongtong remained silent all this time, hearing his mother's familiar tone, this Chen An was probably a domestic slave brought by her hometown, who came to Beijing with her third uncle to serve her.

"Is this the eldest sister?" Chen An glanced back at Mao Tongtong, and said with a smile: "I think that when the eldest sister brought the eldest sister to Beijing that year, she was only so old." He gestured with his hands and said: "Time It’s so fast, the old slave can’t even recognize it.”
