Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 140 Acceptance
Seven catties was enough to eat, and now he is blinking his big black grape-like eyes and looking around curiously, the corners of his lips are curled up, when he saw Huo Shijiu, he waved his small hand, as if to please, very pleasing look like.

Huo Shijiu's heart felt soft. He wanted to pick up Qijin, but he was afraid that his thick hands and feet would damage him, so he squatted beside the bed and carefully teased him with one finger.

Jiang Wu leaned on the soft pillow, looking at this extremely eye-catching picture - Huo Shijiu's smile was very childish, as if he had found some interesting toy.

"Are you in a good mood today?" Jiang Wu asked with a smile.

"I've never been in a bad mood when I come home." Huo Shijiu raised his eyes and smiled at Jiang Wu. When he was tired from squatting, he sat down on the edge of the bed and took Jiang Wu's hand instead.

Indeed, Huo Shijiu seldom brought back home the negative emotions caused by trivial matters in the court and outside.But today he is indeed happier than in the past.

Jiang Wu leaned over curiously: "What good thing happened?"

Hearing this, Huo Shijiu simply lay down with his head on her lap: "Sure enough, you know me best, but you got a huge sum of money by accepting bribes."

"Ah? How much money does it make you feel so good?" When did Huo Shijiu become a money-conscious person?

Huo Shijiu stretched out his left hand and spread his five fingers.

Jiang Wu was surprised: "5 taels?"

"No." Huo Shijiu didn't hold back, and said, "500 million taels."

"What?" Jiang Wu almost bit off her tongue, who is crazy, and gave a bribe of five hundred taels of silver!Huo Jiujiu dared to accept it?That person can pay bribes with so much money, he must not be an idle person, isn't Huo Shijiu worried about fraud?

Seeing her being so surprised, Huo Shijiu said with a smile: "That person is also a strange woman, about the same age as you, who has been in the shopping malls for less than two years, and has become the richest man in Jinzhou. Now she is so courageous , dare to take out such a huge bribe, and still come to me directly, just begging me for a small favor. Even if I don't care about the huge bribe, I want to see what she is going to do?"

When Jiang Wu heard that the other party was a young woman and the richest man in Jinzhou, she became curious about her.She has always admired those heroines in the female middle school. If such a character is not adulterated, he is really worth making friends with.

Jiang Wu asked curiously: "What does she ask you to do?"

Huo Shijiu smiled and said: "Her request is very simple. She wants me to find a way to take out the old grain in the national granary in Kyoto and sell it at [-]% of the original price. She will fill the warehouse with new grain, and she will pay all the expenses Afterwards, it was said that there was a reward.”

Jiang Wu blinked, and there was a trace of speculation in her beautiful eyes.

Selling all the grain in the national granary, the one who has the ability to swallow such a large stock must be Fujia in Kyoto. In this way, the grain market in Kyoto and even around Kyoto will set off a storm.

So what is the richest woman going to do?
"What are you thinking about?" Huo Shijiu had already ordered the wet nurse to take Qijin away, while he was lying where Qijin was just now.

Jiang Wu came back to her senses, looked down at Huo Shijiu and said, "I was thinking, what is that richest girl going to do. If it were me, what would I be able to do."

Huo Shijiu smiled and said: "No matter what she does, what I have to do is not difficult. The old grain in the left and right granaries should also be cleaned up. As for her, we don't care about it. It's just a two-for-one transaction. He wants What I do with the food is not what I should care about."

"I'm worried that her actions will affect you. If something really happens, you will be asked to deal with the aftermath. Also, taking 500 million taels of bribes is enough to behead hundreds of times."

The more Jiang Wu said, the more worried she felt. Huo Shijiu was already caught with braids all over his body, but now he has added this big one. Those who are interested will find trouble if they have nothing to do. If they really know that he has accepted so many bribes, whether it is Whether out of justice or out of jealousy, Huo Shijiu may not have good results.

Just as she was thinking, Jiang Wu was hugged by Huo Jiujiu's long arms.

At this moment, her long hair was loose, spreading over the two of them like a waterfall, sliding over Huo Jiujiu's arms, like cool satin, scratching her heart.

Huo Shijiu forgot what he was going to ask, and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling better now?"

Jiang Wu was taken aback, and it took a while to realize what Huo Jiujiu was asking. She gave him a hard look, and said angrily, "What are you thinking about, of course it can't happen now."

Huo Shijiu pouted childishly, "But it's been a long time. When you get well, I'll draw a table and count it according to the date. Maybe you can calculate whether you have a boy or a girl."

"You man, you should let your son hear what you, a father, have been thinking all day long."

"If he understands, he has to agree with both hands and feet. If I didn't work so hard, where would he come from?"

"You're necrotic!" Jiang Wu thumped Huo Shijiu's chest hard, but he turned over and pressed down to seal it with a kiss.

And because she learned about Yang Xi's "bribing" Huo Shijiu, and also knew that Huo Shijiu had agreed to empty the granary, Jiang Wu paid close attention to the outside movement during her confinement period.

However, within a few days, there was indeed a turbulent wave among the merchants in the capital, and a pool of water was disturbed by this move to the point where it couldn't be more muddy.

It is difficult to raise fish in clean water, Jiang Wu began to wait and see the next move of the richest girl.

Sure enough, in less than ten days, merchants from all over the world who got the inside information first had already swarmed up. Some followed Huo Shijiu's way, and some followed other adults' way, which made Huo Shijiu another big profit.

Within ten days after the national treasury was emptied, inside news came from insiders, saying that a large grain merchant had shipped in large quantities of grain again and would sell it at a price that was 870% lower than the previous treasury clearance price, but there was only one One of the requirements is that this batch of goods worth [-] million taels must be sold at one time, and cannot be sold to multiple people in batches.

As soon as the news came out, all the people in the capital city who were eager to try it all stopped their thoughts. Who can eat the 870 million taels of goods?I'm afraid it will be difficult to release all the worth and silver of dozens of lifetimes.

When Jiang Wu heard Cao Yu's words at home, she slowly put down the tea bowl and said, "It seems that the owner of the Wanlong Bank is about to change hands."

Cao Yu was stunned when he heard the words, and some disbelief flashed across his handsome face.

Jiang Wu asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing, I just feel that Madam and Lord Hou have a good heart. Just now when I told Lord Hou what I said, he said the same thing. It's just that I don't understand what the food issue has to do with the Bandung bank."

Although Jiang Wu knew that Cao Yu and Huo Shijiu had a fateful friendship, she couldn't casually talk about the 500 million taels, let alone Yang Xi, so she just laughed and said nothing.

Cao Yu was also very deep, so he didn't ask any more questions, bowed his hands, and planned to leave.

Ting Yu came into the room holding a glazed flower vase at the moment, and said with a smile: "Ma'am, Lord Hou said that this flower statue doesn't look good standing alone in the front hall. Besides, there will be a full moon wine tomorrow, and there will be many guests. Just putting such a flower statue is also a disgrace to our Houfu, let Madam open the warehouse to find some good ones."

Listening to Yu said implicitly.Jiang Wu guessed that Huo Shijiu's original words were likely to be: "Just taking such a small flower statue has failed my reputation of 'searching for people's fat and people's cream' for many years. Since I have already recited the infamy, why don't I do it openly?" A corrupt official."

Jiang Wusi and this point are unavoidably funny, Huo Shijiu seems to be particularly concerned about the fact that he is a powerful minister who "makes money and has the right way".So I often take this matter to laugh at myself.Jiang Wu understood his thoughts, if he didn't care, he wouldn't bring it up often.It can be seen that he doesn't like the title of "corrupt official", but the situation forces him to do so.

Jiang Wu once asked Huo Shijiu about the whereabouts of the large sum of silver, but Huo Shijiu only said that it was "used by the emperor, and the emperor also knew it".Jiang Wu became more and more certain that Huo Shijiu and the little emperor might have started to cooperate many years ago.

It's just that Jiang Wu is also worried.Accepting bribes with the emperor's permission is not accepting bribes?
"Madam?" Seeing Jiang Wu in a daze, Ting Yu asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, you go to my dowry to get the key, and the brochure to show Hou Ye, he can display whatever he likes."

Looking carefully at Jiang Wu's expression, seeing that she was just thoughtful, not angry, she went to get the key with confidence, and took the booklet for logging into the warehouse to Huo Shijiu.

Leaving Xiaoyi Academy, go forward through the narrow alley, the closer you get to the second gate, the more lively it is, the full moon of the little prince is a big event that shocked the government and the public, not to mention the colleagues in the court, even the palace is rumored Having said that, tomorrow is only allowed to hold a lunch in the mansion, the palace has other arrangements for the dinner.Now that the emperor's harem is full and the queen's position is vacant, the concubines from all walks of life know the relationship between the emperor and Huo Shijiu, so they naturally try their best to please him in every possible way.

Once this news was disseminated, several versions were circulated among the public, and when it reached Qingliu's ears, it had changed to "Huo Shijiu bewitched the little emperor to hold a full moon wine in the palace."

Jiang Xuewen sat upright in the front hall with a cold face, tightly holding the tureen of carp and lotus in his hand, his fingertips gradually turned white, and the waiter at the side stood there with downcast eyes, silent as if on a cicada.Based on her recent experience, she knew that the next action would either be smashing the table or throwing the tea bowl.

Sure enough, there was the sound of broken porcelain, and the newly purchased Carp Xilian tea bowl fell to the ground.

"Bastard!"

"Master, calm down." Sister Yin wrapped her hands in a handkerchief and went to pick up the broken porcelain.It is really embarrassing that a generation of Qingliu famous officials ended up disabled and old, and their wives and children were separated.

Jiang Xuewen was calculating how to ask for leave, when Sister Yin said, "Master, the clothes are ready, do you want to try them on?"

"Even you dare to laugh at me now!"

"Master, you are overthinking."

Jiang Xuewen glared at Sister Yin angrily, knowing that she was not mean, so he suppressed his anger and said, "No need, you back down!"

Sister Yin didn't say much, she took the broken porcelain and retreated.

Jiang Xuewen leaned against the back of the chair, and it took him a long time to calm down, that's all, the emperor's order cannot be violated, since he can't refuse, he has to go.

In fact, Jiang Xuewen's heart is also complicated. Why should his first grandson be Huo Shijiu's child.Why did his daughter betray him...
