The best farmhouse

Chapter 196 Military Pay
As soon as Zhao Canniang walked up the steps, she smelled the smell of alcohol, and the sound of drinking orders came from inside the room.
Zhao Canniang knocked on the door, and the voices in the room stopped suddenly.

A man in military uniform came out.

"It's Miss Zhao... Oh, it should be Madam Chen now, congratulations, Madam Chen!" After the leading officer and soldier finished speaking, Zhao Canniang laughed, "Have we met before, right! Saw it in a restaurant."

It's actually an acquaintance, and it's easy to talk to an acquaintance.

The officer scratched his head in embarrassment: "I didn't expect Mrs. Chen to remember me. Please come inside Mrs. Chen's room."

Zhao Canniang nodded and walked into the room.

There were several jugs on the table, and the people who should have been drinking just now stood up.

"You guys continue to drink." Zhao Canniang hurriedly greeted.

The officers and soldiers talking to Zhao Canniang scratched their heads in embarrassment, and said, "Mrs. Chen, don't pay attention to them. Madam Chen, please sit down!"

Zhao Canniang sat down and asked, "I still don't know what the names of the elder brothers are?"

Zhao Canniang could tell that the officer and soldier who received her just now was the leader in the middle.

"My name is Dayong." The leading officer and soldier said first.

Zhao Canniang didn't beat around the bush, she looked at Dayong, and said seriously: "Ming people don't speak in secret, Brother Dayong, if I have something to say, just say it directly!"

Zhao Canniang looked at Dayong seriously.

Dayong saw that Zhao Canniang's face was full of seriousness, and he became serious again: "Madam, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't worry, our brothers are all the coach's subordinates, so don't worry."

Zhao Canniang nodded. The last time she saw Dayong, she saw how much the Black Panther coach valued Dayong.

I still believe in Dayong.

"Brother Dayong, I have some things to give to the Black Panther coach this time. This batch of things is very important. You must not make any mistakes. I hope you can safely bring the things to the Black Panther coach."

Naturally, Zhao Canniang would not be so stupid as to say what was in the box. In fact, in just two days this time, the Chen family had collected 3 taels of silver. It's not a lot, but 3 taels of silver is not a small amount. If any one of them knows what's inside and has evil intentions, maybe the money will not reach the hands of the black panther coach. Zhao Canniang doesn't want this things happen.

Dayong had been told a long time ago that he knew that Zhao Canniang would bring something to the Black Panther coach. Hearing what Zhao Canniang said at this time, he nodded immediately: "Don't worry, Ma'am, you can rest assured that we brothers will not mess with you. Any mistakes."

Zhao Canniang nodded with a smile: "Then I would like to thank the elder brothers here first. I have prepared the things and will deliver them in a while."

Dayong originally stayed here to get his things, but now that he has the things, he naturally wants to leave: "Our brothers have rested these few days, and when we get the things later, we may have to leave. I will give Mrs. Chen here first. Say goodbye."

Some things are well known to everyone. Zhao Canniang understands that Dayong stayed for money, so of course she did not name her: "There is another letter here for the Black Panther coach, and I hope Brother Dayong can help bring it. Canniang is grateful Endless."

Zhao Canniang was very polite.

When she came out of the house, Zhao Canniang motioned to the two young men who had brought the things to bring the money in.

This time, due to time constraints, there is not much cash in hand, and most of them are bank notes.

And in total, they only earned a box of this size.

After sending the things in, the rest is beyond Zhao Canniang's control.

Going back with Chen Zhongqiu, the two walked in the garden, chatting while walking.

"This matter has been dealt with a little bit for the time being, and I feel a lot more relaxed. After Zhongqiu waits for two days, we will start planning to sell those treasures in the warehouse! The money is far from enough, I want to help people to the end." Zhao Canniang really wanted to help the Black Panther coach the first few people.

Chen Zhongqiu never had any objection to Zhao Canniang's arrangement.

"Chan Niang, you make the decision, do what you say you want to do, I will do it, it's just that there are so many treasures, how do you plan to sell them?"

This is the big problem.

Zhao Canniang had already thought of a solution in her heart. In fact, Zhao Canniang had been looking for a possible solution for the past two days, but she found a good solution.

"Zhongqiu, do you think we can do this? In several relatively large cities, we all open a treasure store, and then sell the things in the warehouse. Of course, these treasures are the most suitable treasures for the store. We can find some other treasures to sell, so that we can make money ourselves, and we can also sell these things in the warehouse. Of course, if the business stabilizes, we can also buy other treasures from outside, and this will also form a way. A good industrial chain."

Chen Zhongqiu listened carefully to Zhao Canniang's explanation, and the more he listened, the more excited he became.

While Zhao Canniang was talking, Chen Zhongqiu was thinking about it, and gradually a brand new blueprint was drawn in his mind.

This business can be done like this, Chen Zhongqiu was happy in his heart: "Chan Niang, your method is really great, if it is according to what you said, then the value of our Chen family will probably go up."

There are many people with silver, and rare treasures are always something that everyone respects. As long as there are some people, there are not many decent treasures in that family.

"Let's go back and plan this matter again. It's really a blessing for me, Chen Zhongqiu, that Canniang was able to marry you. Your brain is not as good as mine. Every idea of ​​yours is so perfect. From now on, you will be with me I will make suggestions from behind, and I will charge in front, and the combination of our husband and wife will definitely be invincible in the mall."

Chen Zhongqiu is very hopeful about the future. He believes that as long as he cooperates well with Zhao Canniang, the Chen family can surpass the Ke family in the future and become the commercial overlord of the ancient Zhou kingdom.

Zhao Canniang smiled slightly: "It's fine if you say yes, we'd better go back early and explain clearly to mother, otherwise mother will suffer again for brother."

The two returned to the main hall.The Qin family and Zhao Qingfeng were still sitting and chatting.

And there were two more people in the room, Lai Shi and Qin Xue.

When Zhao Canniang saw Qin Xue look at Zhao Qingfeng's affectionate look, she felt very helpless.

Every time she saw Qin Xue like this, Zhao Canniang felt that her head was big, and Zhao Qingfeng also felt as if she was sitting on a needle.

Qin Xue's eyes were undisguised, even Chen Zhongqiu couldn't help frowning and looked at Zhao Qingfeng when he saw Qin Xue for the first time.

"Mother, godmother, brother, I'm back."

Zhao Canniang greeted the three of them, then looked at Mrs. Lai with a smile and said, "When did auntie come?"

Knowing that Zhao Canniang didn't like her, Lai pursed her mouth and said uncomfortably: "I just came here not long ago. I saw you coming back today. As my natal family, I naturally want to be there."

At this time, Qin Xue raised her head and looked at Chen Zhongqiu who was sitting beside Zhao Canniang.

Chen Zhongqiu looks dignified, Yushu Lingfeng, much better looking than Zhao Qingfeng.

Qin Xue's heart actually had a little ripple.

Zhao Qingfeng can't think of any solution, maybe Chen Zhongqiu can think of it here, the princess of that big family doesn't have many concubines.

Zhao Canniang didn't know at all that Qin Xue's plan had already hit Chen Zhongqiu.

There is nothing wrong with Rei's statement.

Zhao Canniang smiled and did not continue talking.

It's hard for Lai's mother and daughter to talk here, so Zhao Canniang exchanged pleasantries with several people, and then followed Chen Zhongqiu to the back garden to rest.

After lunch, Dayong came to say goodbye.

Zhao Canniang's family sent Dayong and others out of the house.

After lunch, Mrs. Lai had no choice but to take Qin Xue away to see if there was a chance to do something today.

Zhao Qingfeng also breathed a sigh of relief. "It's finally gone. Mother, did you tell grandma about this matter? Cousin is not the way to do this. I think it's better to find a good family for cousin to marry!"

Zhao Qingfeng said that he couldn't bear it, Qin Xue looked at him with too hot eyes, and Qin Xue's performance was also too enthusiastic.

Zhao Qingfeng didn't like this feeling.

Qin sighed,
Back at the house, there are only Mrs. Ji and Qin's Zhao Qingfeng in the room.

Zhao Canniang and Chen Zhongqiu sat side by side.

"Little sister, you can tell me what happened now!" Zhao Qingfeng had long felt itchy and wanted to find out what happened.

Zhao Canniang nodded and said, "Brother, do you still remember the list you gave me? It's the list that I didn't read out, the congratulatory gift from the black panther coach."

This matter was taken over by Zhao Qingfeng himself, of course he was clear.

"Of course I know about this matter. I took over the list from Dayong at the time. I don't know why you ask this?"

Zhao Canniang then continued to explain: "This is what I want to talk about, brother, you knew about the lack of military pay for the Black Panther coach when you were in Yucheng, right?"

Zhao Qingfeng nodded, General Erhu said these things secretly, so both Zhao Canniang and Zhao Qingfeng knew about it.

Zhao Canniang went on to say: "This time the Black Panther coach is giving me a congratulatory gift in name, but in fact the deep meaning is that he wants me to dispose of those treasures. You know their identities, and they are not suitable for publicity, let alone doing business. It is even more impossible for them to be involved in low-level industries, so naturally this task falls to us, and the Black Panther coach also trusts us."

Zhao Qingfeng knew more than Chen Zhongqiu. At this time, Zhao Canniang gave a general idea, and Zhao Qingfeng already understood that the following list was what the Black Panther coach had to deal with.

"Then what are you going to do next? Each of those treasures is unique, have you thought of a way to deal with it?" Zhao Qingfeng asked worriedly.

Chen Zhongqiu, who was sitting on the side, nodded at this time and said: "Channiang has already thought of a way, we plan to open stores in several big cities, and then slowly deal with these treasures, we can slowly advance the money to pay some To the Black Panther coach, today we sent 3 taels of silver out."

We are all a family, so there is no need to hide it. Zhao Qingfeng was happy when he heard it, but then he complained and said: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? Although I don't have much money, I can make some money." Qianliang, at least you can do your best!"

Zhao Qingfeng is also enthusiastic.

Zhao Canniang smiled slightly: "This matter is also very urgent, otherwise we wouldn't be able to gather more than 2 taels of banknotes, but the cash is only a little bit. If brother wants to do his best, there will be opportunities next time!"

What Zhao Canniang said was very reasonable, and Zhao Qingfeng agreed with both hands.

At this time, Qin asked a little puzzled: "Then why didn't the Black Panther instructor explain?"

Zhao Canniang smiled: "Damn, I didn't say it at the beginning. The status of a businessman is the lowest. How can they do business with such a noble status? Besides, I think the black panther coach also wants to help us. You must know that there are many treasures in the middle who are As long as we make good use of something that can’t be met, and it will be a sensation when we take it out, the benefits it brings can only be said to be endless. I think the coach of the Black Panthers also thought of this, so he put so many precious treasures send over."

Zhao Canniang's words really hit the heart of the black panther coach. It is true that the black panther coach wants to solve his own problems on the one hand, and on the other hand, he wants to help Zhao Canniang. You must know that many of these things cannot appear outside Treasures, the head coach of the Black Panthers thinks that these things are precious, so he doesn't want to take such a good opportunity off to outsiders.

Here, Zhao Canniang's family is discussing about Bao Bao, while in the barracks on the other side, the Black Panther instructors are sitting together.

Du Hu looked at Black Panther seriously and said, "I always feel that this matter was done too hastily, those treasures are worth a lot of money."

Duo felt that sending so many out at once was a little risky, what if Zhao Canniang didn't understand the meaning in the middle?What if Zhao Canniang is reluctant to take out the money?
In short, all kinds of worries, what they gave to Zhao Canniang was all their intentions, but the remaining rare treasures were all the soldiers' salary for the next year!
But Erhu stood up and said: "I believe Canniang will understand what we mean, and I love Canniang, that girl is very smart, it is impossible not to know what we mean, we just need to wait a bit, When Dayong and the others come back, they will know everything."

Several other people did not speak, watching Du Hu and Er Hu arguing.

At this time, the Black Panther coach said: "None of you need to say anything. I know this matter well, just like what Erhu said. We just need to wait for this matter. Besides, we have no other way now. You also know the situation of the national treasury. The emperor gave us those rare treasures as food, we can only sell them, no matter how precious they were before, no matter how precious they are, they are dead things, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of our soldiers are precious there."

"I still believe in Zhao Canniang, just like what Erhu said, Zhao Canniang is smart, I believe he can understand what we mean, we just need to wait a little longer, I still have tens of thousands of taels of silver on hand, three I will give you the silver later, and you will buy it as grain and grass, and the soldiers all have families, so everyone will send out some silver.”

The Panther coach is really a good general.

Two months later, Dayong and the others finally rushed back to the border, and they brought back the wooden box brought back by Zhao Canniang.

Dayong and the others didn't open it curiously.

When the big wooden box was placed in the center of the tent, the Black Panther instructor and several generals were all excited.

They had a hunch that Zhao Canniang understood what they meant.

The Panther instructor hurriedly asked someone to break the lock and open the box.

On the upper level are neat stacks of banknotes, while the lower level is full of gold and silver.

Dayong was also a little surprised when he saw the contents of the box. In the past two months, he hadn't opened it curiously to look at it, and he didn't expect that Zhao Canniang sent all the money.

"By the way, coach, Mrs. Chen still has a letter for me to bring to you." Saying so, Dayong took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to the Panther coach.

Several people gathered together to look.

After a while, the black panther instructor finished reading the letter, and said to the generals: "We made the right bet, Canniang understood what we meant, and the letter said that because of the urgent time, this time we got more than 3 taels of silver. They recently thought of a way to collect more silver to send, and they also said that they planned to sell all the treasures we sent, and all the silver sold would be sent to us.”

The Black Panther coach was indescribably excited. Although 3 taels of silver is not a lot, as long as there is a steady stream of money, all problems can be solved.

As long as the national treasury is gradually filled, the problem can be solved.

They didn't have to worry about food and pay either. The black panther instructor was very happy and handed the letter in his hand to Sanhu, then he knelt down and carefully checked the banknotes in the box.

The five tiger generals were very excited, but fortunately things had a big turning point now, as long as Zhao Canniang could sell those rare treasures, then they would not have to worry about food and pay every day.

The national treasury is empty, and the new emperor has just ascended the throne. Many places need to use money. In addition, there are more natural disasters this year.

The emperor had no other choice, so he gave the rare treasures obtained from the house raid to the Panther instructor, and asked the Panther instructor to figure out a way by himself. This is the military salary.

Duhu's worries at the beginning were all gone now.

Erhu's face was full of smiles: "I said that Canniang is not that kind of person, that girl is very smart, but I am worried that those rare treasures will not be easy to sell."

Those treasures can easily cost tens of thousands of taels, or even tens of thousands of taels of silver, which is definitely not something ordinary people can afford.

Erhu's worry is not without reason.

"I'm also very worried about this matter, but don't worry about it. I believe that Canniang's business sense is better than ours. As long as she can sell the things, everything will be easy to handle. Keep half of the 3 taels and keep the rest. Send it out!"

The Panther coach ordered that they had owed the soldiers several months of military pay. Although everyone didn't say anything, they felt very guilty as generals.
