The best farmhouse

Chapter 157 Battle
In the back hall of the rice shop of the Chen family, Chen Zhongqiu and the rice shop owners in Baiyun County sat together.

Zhao Canniang was also standing beside her.

Everyone's faces were beaming, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

One of the owners of the rice shop was the most well-informed, and at the moment he laughed and said: "The Ke family has suffered such a big loss this time, maybe the gold abacus is stomping in anger behind."

Another owner of the rice shop laughed when he heard this: "That's what he deserves. The Ke family's roots are not in Baiyun County at all, and they wanted to work for tigers in our county, wantonly disrupting the market and lowering prices. Fortunately, we were not fooled this time. Fortunately, everyone is united together, otherwise we might be the ones who suffer."

"That's right! If Mr. Chen hadn't found us early, maybe I would have started to lower the price, and we might be the ones who suffered at that time. Although we didn't make much money this time, everyone was very happy. If we meet again next time When something like this happens, we must play the Ke family to death."

Chen Zhongqiu also had a smile on his face, he didn't expect Zhao Canniang's proposal to be so good, and it was the golden abacus who fell for it in the end, not them.

Chen Zhongqiu smiled slightly at this time, and then said: "Today's matter is the result of everyone's joint efforts. The Ke family probably doesn't have much rice. When their rice is delivered again, we will reduce the price by every penny. I don’t believe he still dares to play with us.”

The owner of the rice shop who spoke first nodded, and then Chen Zhongqiu said: "I support your plan, we will gradually lower the price, and we will lower the price. I don't believe that there are so many rice shops in our city. He's from the Ke family."

Originally, there was an unwritten rule in the business community of Baiyun County that they could not lower prices at will to disrupt the market. Jin Suanan did not understand the rules of Baiyun County this time, after all, he was too eager for success.

With a smile on Chen Zhongqiu's face, he continued: "I guess the Ke family will have a series of actions in the future, everyone should be on guard!"

Most of the merchants in the city are not engaged in a single business, such as the owner of the rice shop, maybe there are silk and satin shops, garment shops and other industries.

Seeing what Chen Zhongqiu said, several people nodded thoughtfully.

The Ke family's crisis this time, Chen Zhongqiu told the bosses of several rice shops without hesitation. Chen Zhongqiu did this because he wanted to tell everyone that he wanted to run the Ke family away. If he was willing to come in, he might be able to Take a share.

These bosses are not fools. It is good to have one less competitor. Besides, the Chen family is the tyrant of Baiyun County. No one wants to offend unless it is absolutely necessary. Now that there is such a good thing and skills to run away from the Ke family, it can also please them. The Chen family, why not do it!
So for the time being, everyone is now a grasshopper on a rope.

Zhao Canniang listened quietly and did not speak. Everything that happened in front of her was within her expectations. As long as everyone resisted the Ke family together, it would be better than the Chen family and their family fighting alone.

After everyone discussed the next plan, the rice shop owners left one after another.

Chen Zhongqiu watched everyone leave, and immediately said excitedly to Zhao Canniang: "We really won. This time our family bought seven or eight hundred catties of rice at Ke's."

In fact, Chen Zhongqiu was the first to do it, because he could gather people quickly, all the maids and servants in his own mansion were sent to line up, not to mention, Zhao Canniang also found a dozen people in Zhaojiazhuang.

At the beginning when there was no limit, Zhao Cannian had already started asking everyone to buy as much as they could, and later when the limit was limited, he also went to line up.

In the end, the Ke family gained the most.

The corners of Zhao Canniang's mouth curled up, she was also in a good mood, but she still said seriously: "Don't be too happy too early, it's too early to be happy now, I believe that since Jin Abacus is a little bit jealous, it means that he really has some skills. Maybe the big move is still waiting for us, so it’s best for us to be careful next.”

Zhao Canniang has come out of the excitement, and now she is more vigilant.

Chen Zhongqiu nodded, and also suppressed his smile, that's right, now is not the time to be happy, after all, it is not clear how many tricks Jin Suan still has waiting for them.

Zhao Canniang was going to sit in her family's restaurant these days, so she didn't dare to stay for long, so she said to Chen Zhongqiu: "I might have to go back, if you notice anything unusual here, please notify me immediately."

Chen Zhongqiu sent Zhao Canniang out of the rice shop, and Chen Zhongqiu didn't dare to relax these days.

Zhao Canniang walked on the street with a calm face. Zhao Canniang deliberately passed by Ke's rice shop, and found that there were still people waiting outside the Ke's rice shop, some people who really didn't buy rice, and some knocking on the door outside.

And several nearby rice shops have released news at this time, reducing prices!A catty of rice costs two pennies.

Although the price cuts were not as large as the Ke family's, everyone did not hesitate this time, and the people were not fools. The rice shop lowered prices one by one for no reason. There must be something tricky in the middle, so many people started stockpiling food.

As for Zhao Canniang, she couldn't suppress her ecstasy after seeing the Ke family like this.

Facing her, Zhao Canniang saw a man wearing a light purple round neck long coat. The man was about twenty years old, and he was still very handsome. On the man's shirt, there were some auspicious patterns embroidered with golden silk thread.

Under the sunlight, the golden pattern reflected the golden light.

The man wore a white jade hair crown on his head, and the black court boots on his feet were also more conspicuous.

There are also jade rings and a Ruyi buckle hanging on the man's waist, which looks graceful and luxurious. '

These are not what really attracted Zhao Canniang's attention, what really attracted Zhao Canniang was the man's eyes.

The man's eyes always give people a feeling of repelling people thousands of miles away, and not getting close to strangers.

In the eyes of ordinary people, a man is arrogant, but Zhao Canniang thinks that such eyes represent self-confidence.

The man saw Zhao Canniang looking at him, and he didn't avoid Zhao Canniang's eyes. The straight man met Zhao Canniang's eyes.

The man went straight to Zhao Canniang.

"Miss looks very familiar."

The man's voice is nice.

The corners of Zhao Canniang's mouth curled up, and her eyes subconsciously looked at the man's waist. Just now she was only attracted by the man's Ruyi button and jade ring, but she didn't notice that there was a two-finger-wide, two-knuckle pendant hanging from the man's waist. The golden abacus of long and short.

"Golden Abacus really lives up to its reputation. Just by the look in your eyes, I have to sigh very sharply. How do you know me?"

What Zhao Canniang dislikes the most is beating around the bush, she just likes to talk straight.

Seeing that Zhao Canniang saw through his identity with just one glance, Jin Suan couldn't help laughing: "You really deserve your reputation. I didn't expect you to know me! I'm just curious how you recognized me?"

Zhao Canniang raised her eyebrows and said with great interest, "I asked you this question first, so you should answer it first!"

Jin Suan smiled and said seriously: "Because I have seen your portrait, I recognized you at a glance, and your clothes are really different from other women."

Jin Suan couldn't help but glanced at Zhao Canniang.

Zhao Canniang recently, because she was worried about encountering a fight, she didn't wear skirts on her lower body, but directly wore trousers.

Fortunately, the folk customs in the ancient Zhou Kingdom are relatively open. Even if a woman walks outside in trousers, it will not cause criticism from others. Besides, Zhao Canniang is wearing skirts. If you don’t pay attention, outsiders can’t see it , Jin Suan saw it at a glance, and I have to say that his eyes are very good.

The smile on Zhao Canniang's face made Jin Suan unable to understand Zhao Canniang's heart.

"Now it's your turn to answer me, how do you know me?" Jin Suan asked seriously.

He can guarantee that Zhao Canniang has never seen him before, because he is an invisible pawn in the Ke family.

Even in Yucheng, few people know of his existence.

Zhao Canniang took two steps to the side of the street, avoiding the crowd, and said with a smile: "Young master's clothes are very different from those in Baiyun County, and besides, your eyes are very proud and confident. To outsiders, your eyes are like There are not many people in Baiyun County who have such eyes. Moreover, the accent of the young master's speech is not like that of Baiyun County. Baiyun County says it is not big, but it is not small. We naturally know when outsiders come. , the last point is also the most important, the reason why I saw your identity was because of the golden abacus in your waist. Are you satisfied with my explanation?"

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, the corners of her mouth curled up, her eyes filled with confidence.

After Jin Suan listened to Zhao Canniang's analysis, the unwillingness in his heart dissipated immediately.

It is the dream of all masters to meet an equally powerful opponent.

Jin Suan didn't underestimate Zhao Canniang, and he didn't treat Zhao Canniang with contempt just because she was a woman.

Jin Suan chuckled: "Satisfied, Ms. Zhao's explanation is really wonderful. When I meet an opponent like you, I feel that life is more meaningful. Although Ms. Zhao won the first round, I still want to I want to advise Ms. Zhao, don’t be proud! Because I have more powerful tricks to fight Ms. Zhao too early, Ms. Zhao, you have to be ready!"

The corners of Zhao Canniang's mouth curled up, her face full of indifference: "Since Shopkeeper Jin has said so, then I can only wait for Shopkeeper Jin's next move."

The smile on Jin Suan's face was even worse, and then the smile on his face subsided and he asked seriously: "There is a question that has been bothering me. I want to ask it, but I am afraid of offending Ms. Zhao..."

Knowing that Jin Suanan asked this question, Zhao Canniang actually wanted to agree with him.

Zhao Canniang was also very curious about what Jin Suan wanted to ask, so she said with a smile: "If you have any questions, shopkeeper Jin, just ask directly. As long as I know something, I will definitely answer it properly."

Shopkeeper Jin still had no smile on his face, so he asked in a low voice, "Did Ke Tianlin really deceive Miss?"

Zhao Canniang's face changed, she didn't expect that even shopkeeper Jin would know about this matter.

Zhao Canniang was not angry, her face had returned to normal, Zhao Canniang smiled and said, "You should ask Ke Tianlin this question, but there is one thing I can tell Shopkeeper Jin, what I hate the most in my life is being treated by others Deception, so I want to say a word to shopkeeper Jin, no matter how powerful the Ke family is, this time I am determined, even if I end up miserable, I will drag one or two backs in."

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she smiled slightly: "Shopkeeper Jin, I have something to do so I won't bother you. Now that Treasurer Jin is ready for the challenge, I should prepare myself."

After speaking, Zhao Canniang left directly.

Shopkeeper Jin looked at Zhao Canniang's back thoughtfully, and it seemed that the news he got was correct.

It was because Ke Tianlin was ashamed of Zhao Canniang that Zhao Canniang took revenge like this.

Plus Zhao Qingfeng is also a protector, plus there is a Chen family, things are not so easy to control.

It is really a terrible thing to offend a woman who is intelligent and has clear love and hate.

This point is completely understood by Jin Abacus.

For the next two days, there was no news from Jin Abacus, but the quieter it was, the more Zhao Canniang felt that this was the approaching of the storm, and things seemed to be getting serious.

Finally on the third day.

Jin Abacus started to act.

Jin Abacus frantically bought shops in Baiyun City. Not to mention the high prices, the key point was that the locations where Jin Abacus bought shops were all close to the Chen family.

Zhao Canniang smiled when she heard Chen Zhongqiu's anxious words.

"Buy it and buy it! We see it, but you can secretly manipulate the price and try to get everyone to raise the price, so that everyone can make more money."

Zhao Channiang seems to have thought of what Jin Suansu will do next.

Chen Zhongqiu was still a little anxious, but Zhao Canniang continued: "Don't worry, you can delay for another two days, I can prepare everything in just two days, and you will know how powerful it is then."

When Zhao Canniang said this, she smiled cruelly.

Since Jin Abacus wants to play big, let's play it.

In a whole day, Jin Abacus only bought three stores, and the prices of these three stores were all very high.

It is equivalent to that the three stores were acquired at a high price by Jin Abacus.

The Chen family has been able to establish a foothold in Baiyun County for such a long time. Naturally, there is a reason for it. In addition, all the businesses seem to have smelled something unusual in the air this time. Everyone is not a fool. With the family's current financial resources, it will be even more difficult to make money at that time. No one is a fool, and no one is stupid.

So many people are secretly preventing the Ke family from buying a store.

On the third floor of Tianxiang Restaurant, the teacup in Jin Suan's hand was shaken violently by Jin Suan.

From the very beginning, Jin Suan thought that this matter would be stopped by others, but he didn't expect that Mr. Cong would interfere with so many people this time. The chance is that the businesses in the entire Baiyun County would unite to deal with his family.

It seems that Jin Suanan has already smelled that he is going to fail this time.

Zhao Canniang's preparations are in place.

After two days like this, inside Tianxiang Restaurant.

The chef and waiter in the back kitchen both went on strike on the same day.

And Zhao Canniang made proper arrangements for the chef and the waiter who left.

Is a restaurant without a chef and a waiter still called a restaurant?Naturally, it was impossible, no one was cooking, and in the end all the customers of Tianxiang Restaurant went to Zhao's private restaurant not far away.

In the past two days, Zhao Canniang also organized a big reward event, which was naturally more attractive.

It was at this time that Zhao Canniang also started selling konjac-type dishes.

Tianxiang Restaurant is empty.Only then did Jin Suan know that Zhao Canniang had been refusing to accept the move for the past few days, and it turned out that she was prying around the corner of the wall.

Everyone is not a fool. Those chefs have little to do with the Ke family. Most of them stay in Tianxiang Restaurant because of shopkeeper Zhang. Shopkeeper Zhang has kindness to many people in Tianxiang restaurant.

Furthermore, this time Zhao Canniang invited shopkeeper Zhang to help out, but shopkeeper Zhang didn't make much effort. Everyone followed shopkeeper Zhang and left, and the next thing everyone had to do was to have a good rest.

Zhao Canniang's plan is very big, and there will be plenty of things for these people to do.

The shopkeeper Jin was very angry, and the boy beside him was so frightened that he didn't know whether to speak or not.

"It's really disgusting, Zhao Canniang actually thought of this trick."

The corner of the wall was pried at the critical moment, it would be a lie if the shopkeeper Jin was not angry.

Zhao Canniang here didn't think too much, she had already arranged the servants and chefs who came out of Tianxiang Restaurant.

"What should we do next, shopkeeper?" The servant at the side asked a little nervously.

Shopkeeper Jin sighed and said, "Of course it's a counterattack."

In the next few days, many people in Baiyun County felt something was wrong.

Many businesses in the city began to fight back.

Several businesses of the Ke family were hit hard.

There was a little excitement on Chen Zhongqiu's face, he had never thought about such a thing before, and now a tailor shop in the Ke family has closed.

Even Chen Zhongqiu felt a little miraculous about this.

There was a smile on Zhao Canniang's face, and when Chen Zhongqiu said that the other party had locked up a family, Zhao Canniang was overjoyed.

Here, Zhao Canniang is fighting fiercely with others.

The Qin family here also encountered something, but it was a good thing.

Shopkeeper Zhang has nothing to do with Ke's family now, and he is no longer the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Restaurant. Suddenly, the burden on his shoulders seems to be lifted.

Shopkeeper Zhang felt very relaxed, and when he relaxed, he would start thinking wildly.

There are three or four concubines behind shopkeeper Zhang, but they don't have any feelings for them, and they can't say how much they like them.Because there is no headed mistress, several concubines are fighting each other to take the position of headed mother.

It's just that shopkeeper Zhang didn't show it all the time, which made everyone's hearts itch.

Hence, shopkeeper Zhang began to plan to come to propose marriage, because since the first time he saw Qin Shi, shopkeeper Zhang had his mind moved, and when he heard about Qin Shi, he immediately wanted to protect Qin Shi even more.

Now shopkeeper Zhang has found He Xiangu, and after telling He Xiangu about himself.

He Xiangu's face was full of smiles.

She also knew about the Qin family, and as a woman, He Xiangu actually sympathized with her.Shopkeeper Zhang is a nice person. Although this relationship came late, these are not important. As long as the two people really love each other, that's enough.

He Xiangu listened to the shopkeeper Zhang's words and agreed directly.
