pungent peasant girl

Chapter 356 Hooked

"Young Madam, this is an invitation from the Guan family, sent by the Guan family."

"Oh? Are you here soon?" Meng Qianyan took the invitation and waved his hand to signal the servant to go down first.

Then unfold it.

There was nothing special about the invitation, it was just an excuse to ask her to go to Guan's house for a while.

It seems that Guan Zhihai really took the bait.

She rested her chin and thought quietly.

Taking the bait is only the first step, the most important thing is to hook him thoroughly.

"Ahhh! Young Madam, I've hit it!" Luoying cheered in surprise.

Meng Qianyan glanced at her from the corner of his eye, "Where did the shot go?"

"Shot on target!"

"Tell me when you hit the bull's-eye!"

After speaking, she stood up.

"Young lady, where are you going?"

"I'm going to rest in the house. I'm going to Guan's house later in the day. You can rest when you're tired."

Meng Qianyan took a nap in the room.

When she woke up again, it was not so hot anymore. She stretched her muscles and took out the clothes she wanted to wear from the cabinet.

Luoying and Dong'er are ready.

Before the sun was setting, they had already arrived at Guan's house.

"Hehehe, the princess is here, and I'm not far away to welcome you, please come in quickly, please come in quickly."

Qiu Shi greeted.

Guan Zhihai also came out quickly to greet him.

"Master Guan is being polite."

"Hehe, it's a pity that Guan was not there last time when the princess was here, so I asked Jing'er to invite the princess again. The small banquet is ready, the princess is here."

It was said to be a small feast, but in fact it was well prepared, and even some dishes were never seen by Meng Qianyan.

She sat down, ate steadily, talked and laughed.

She couldn't allow herself to be the most nervous one.

Sure enough, Guan Zhihai couldn't hold back any longer, and when it came to business matters, "Weiluo Tailor's business is really enviable, and the princess and concubine's family are really good at managing it."

"Hehe, it's incomparable. Master Guan is still No.1 among merchants in the capital."

"The princess is laughing, Guan is just lucky. By the way, Guan heard from Jinger that the princess wants to cooperate with our Guan family?"

"Oh, I mentioned this matter to Miss Guan once, but it was a few days ago."

"Then now, don't you want to cooperate?"

"Well, I'm actually hesitating too."

"Forgive me for being direct, I don't know what the princess wants to cooperate with? Generally speaking, whether it's jewelry business or business that requires secret freight, our Guan family is the most powerful in the entire capital."

"I really let Master Guan talk. I have a batch of goods in my hand that I want to transport out of the capital, or even across the border. I don't know if Master Guan can do it?"

"This." Guan Zhihai also hesitated.

The goods to be shipped out of the Yan Dynasty must be shady things.

Guan Zhihai has experienced a lot in the capital, so he is not afraid.

"Princess, you have to know that for some things, transporting them out is a serious crime of losing your head."

"Yes, I know this too, otherwise, I wouldn't have looked for Master Guan."

"I don't know what the princess's thing is."

Meng Qianyan smiled when he heard the words, pretending to be conservative, "Master Guan, you didn't agree to cooperate, so I'd better not talk about it."

Guan Zhihai also laughed dryly, "Princess, let's be straightforward, but the value of transporting such risky things cannot be calculated in gold and silver."

Meng Qianyan also imitated him and laughed dryly, she stretched out a finger, "Master Guan, I can give you this number, and it is gold."

Guan Zhihai was shocked, "So many."

"Moreover, I can use all the contacts of the Luo family to ensure that the position of the chairman of the chamber of commerce next year will still belong to Mr. Guan."

Guan Zhihai was silent.

The chopsticks in his hand turned slightly.

The conditions Meng Qianyan offered her were really tempting.

In the past two years, the strength of the Zheng family has risen too fast, especially the young masters of the Zheng family are very successful, and there are two daughters married to officials.

Compared with the Guan family, this is threatening the Guan family.

Once he is not the chairman, those who have offended him these years will definitely start to take revenge on him, and Zheng Ruhai will definitely try to suppress him.

In this way, the Guan family may be in decline.

"Master Guan, why don't you think about it." Meng Qianyan said lightly, not in a hurry.

"Don't think about it, Guan is willing to cooperate, but Guan has a third condition."

"Tell me, let me listen."

"Zheng Ruhai, the princess knows me."

"know."

"Guan hopes that the princess can find a way to suppress the Zheng family."

Meng Qianyan smiled, "Hehe, there must be a lot of shady things in the Zheng family's business to achieve this position. As long as Master Guan gives me some clues to suppress the Zheng family, I will naturally have a way."

Speaking of this, Guan Zhihai's eyes showed a smile.

"Okay, then Guan agrees to cooperate with the princess. I just don't know what kind of goods the princess wants to ship out, and where does she plan to ship it to after she goes out?"

"This, I would like to ask Mr. Guan to take a look at it for himself, and help me think about it."

"Then choosing a date is worse than bumping into the sun, or just tonight, and Guan will accompany you to have a look."

Meng Qianyan smiled, Guan Zhihai was cautious enough.

He didn't give him any time to breathe, because he wanted to see her details and her confidence.

She didn't hesitate either, "Well, I'll go back to the consort's mansion first and make some preparations. Tonight, we'll make an appointment to have a look together."

"Okay, let's make a decision."

Coming out of Guan's house, Meng Qianyan went straight back to the consort's mansion in a carriage without delaying for a moment.

However, the front door comes in and the back door goes out.

She went directly to Mo Yun again.

The so-called goods must be prepared by Mo Yun.

"Tonight?" Mo Yun heard Meng Qianyan narrate, "You are too anxious."

"It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's that Guan Zhihai is cautious and wants to see our details. Brother Seventeen, you should be able to prepare."

"It's not difficult, you just go back and wait, tonight, you can just wait in the son-in-law's mansion."

With Mo Yun's guarantee, Meng Qianyan returned to the consort's mansion.

Waiting for Mo Yun's arrangement, and also waiting for Guan Zhihai's arrival.

As the sky gradually darkened, Meng Qianyan's heart also hung up.

Today's matter is not a trivial matter, it is related to knowing the details of Mo Yan and obtaining evidence.

At this time, Luo Ziyan also came back.

"Ziyan."

"Qianyan, how is it?"

"I'm still waiting. Tonight, Guan Zhihai wants to see our goods." Meng Qianyan replied.

"Don't worry, I will be with you by your side."

As Luo Ziyan said, he took out a set of ordinary attendant clothes.

"This is--"

"Everyone in the court knows that I, Luo Ziyan, are close to the Seventeenth Prince, and the Seventeenth Brother is Moyan, which is a hostile relationship, so it is not easy for me to expose my identity and contact Guan Zhihai."

"That's right, in this way, I can feel more at ease when you are by my side."

"Don't worry, Brother Seventeen is safe, and since Guan Zhihai is willing to come, it means that he was indeed hooked."
