After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 377

Liu Ji followed Qin Yao, looking back timidly and asking curiously:

“Madam, what did that female general just say to you?”

Qin Yao said nonsense seriously: "She asked me to kill you and go to the capital with her to become a female official. She wants to lead me to a prosperous career and reach the pinnacle of life."

Liu Ji suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He subconsciously tightened his cotton-padded jacket and asked tentatively with a smile:

“Lady, have you agreed?”

Qin Yao: "If I agreed, do you think you can still stand in front of me now?"

Liu Ji smiled and he knew it! She couldn't bear to kill him!

"But, madam, why do you refuse?" Liu Ji opened his eyes expectantly, waiting for her to say that she was reluctant to kill him.

Qin Yao stared at Liu Ji for three seconds, holding back the amusement in her heart. As he wished, she slightly lowered her eyelashes and said seriously: "Of course I can't bear to leave you and the children. A mere seventh-grade sergeant and the captain of Her Royal Highness the Princess's Guards. Can I buy my dearest family members? This is absolutely impossible.”

Seeing that she didn't explain, Jiang Wen just thought she was acquiescing. In her polite attitude, she was a little more careful and hurriedly asked the waiter to bring up the silver that had been prepared.

Qin Yao understood. No wonder Jiang Wen looked so ugly last time. It turned out that the trading company was seized by the Water Transport Department, causing the capital chain to break.

"Madam!" Liu Ji stepped up, grabbed both of her hands boldly, stood there, ignoring the curious and gossipy eyes of the people around him, and said loudly:

Jiang Wen smiled and nodded: "Exactly."

“Ms. Qin, this is the balance of the previous payment, five hundred and sixty taels of silver. I will put the cash in the box for you. Please keep it.”

Her eyes flashed sharply, and she reiterated once again that she had nothing to do with Magistrate He, so if he wanted to ask her to handle something difficult, she didn't have the ability to solve it for him.

Along the way, I found that several shops were selling small gadgets like windmills. The business was very good. Qin Yao decided to come and take a look after collecting the money.

He also hurriedly invited this list of five thousand book boxes from his employer last night, thinking that Qin Yao still had a chance of survival, but who expected that she refused to admit her relationship with the He family.

Looking at her, Qin Yao couldn't help but look back at her. Qin Yao was annoyed and raised her fist to threaten, so he turned his head away.

Qin Yao was secretly disgusted, and without showing any flaws on her face, she naturally took out her hand and patted his shoulder, "Come on, let's pass the government examination next year and be exempted from taxes and corvee."

“Do you know who did it?” Qin Yao asked tentatively.

Qin Yao shook her head and handed back a banknote, "You remembered wrongly, it was 30,600 taels. Just ask me for another 100 taels. You can take this banknote and put it away."

But Qin Yao knew that someone's moment of self-impression would not last long.

His attitude suddenly became so good. Qin Yao was still a little unaccustomed to it, so she glanced at him jokingly, and Jiang Wen immediately smiled in apology.

After waiting for too long, Jiang Wen came in with a smile and said, "I didn't expect you, Madam Qin, to have such a close relationship with Magistrate He!" Qin Yao glanced at him and said, "The second shopkeeper is not easy to talk nonsense. , How dare I, a village woman, reach out to the prefect?"

Qin Yao held a wooden box in her hand with all the documents inside. Last time, the trading company placed an order for two thousand book boxes and paid a 30% deposit. Now there is still a balance of 560 taels of silver left.

Sure enough, when we returned to the inn, Liu Saner, who had promised to live up to his affection one second, fell asleep in the "Zhongyong" that he had just opened for less than half a quarter of an hour.

Sitting opposite her, Liu Ji held his chin in his hands, his eyes full of spring, lowered his head and smiled shyly, and then stood up to read.

Her main task today is to settle the bill. Yesterday, she asked the innkeeper to send a letter to Fulong Trading Company to inform her. If nothing else happens, Jiang Wen will be waiting for her at the trading bank.

Jiang Wen obviously didn't believe it so easily. He still wanted to say a few words, but Qin Yao raised her hand to stop him and returned the new order contract after reading it. "There are no other problems. Just exchange the advance deposit for 30%."

Power is good, and the new orders are much more refreshing than expected.

So, he had no choice but to ask Qin Yao to see if he could help deliver a message to Magistrate He.

“There was something wrong with a few cargo ships on the pier. They were detained by the Water Transport Department. The goods could not be delivered. The customers were pressing hard, and the trading company could not receive the payment. There was a stalemate there.”

"Yeah!" Liu Ji nodded heavily, with tears glistening in his eyes. He turned away and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand. When he turned back, he smiled at her like a dog wagging its tail, full of tears. It's loyalty.

"You haven't read a book after eating. What are you doing here watching me?" Qin Yao asked unhappily.

When it was time for Qin Yao to get up, he immediately got up and went to buy hot water for washing. He went outside the store to buy hot buns and hot soy milk and placed them on the table. After Qin Yao washed her face, she could eat them when she sat down.

Jiang Wending glanced at her, then lowered his eyes and said while changing the contract:

Qin Yao checked her accounts again in her mind and looked at the shops on the street that were doing well, not forgetting to look for the gadgets Erlang wanted.

This matter is very serious. If it continues, the entire Fulong Trading Company will be brought down.

Jiang Wen had a look that said, "I understand." He sat down and said, "Ms. Qin keeps a low profile, but yesterday the daughter of the prefect came to the inn to pick you up and Mr. Liu, and everyone saw it. This can't be a lie, right?"

Liu Ji's eyes suddenly burst into dazzling light. He couldn't believe that she, she actually cared about him so much.

Qin Yao glanced at the bank note and then looked at Jiang Wen: "Second shopkeeper, is our old rule 50%?"

However, Liu Ji has never done anything to shame himself. He got up early the next day and picked up the "Zhongyong" that was covered with his nightmare saliva and continued to memorize it.

“I, Liu Ji, swear that I will definitely pass the exam and live up to your affection, my wife, and let you live a better life than a seventh-grade sergeant!”

"That's right." Another new contract document was handed over with the ink not yet dry, "This is the order for the coming year, five thousand magical book boxes. The last shipment will be picked up in mid-May. Can you see if there are any problems? "

The clerk in the store happened to know Qin Yao, so he hurriedly took her in, served her hot tea, and asked her to wait a moment while he called the second shopkeeper over.

After finishing a thorny breakfast, Qin Yao simply packed up and went out alone.

Fulong Trading Company has arrived.

Qin Yao didn't bother to explain anymore. Fulong Trading Company had so many informants. Jiang Wen could think more if he wanted to. He didn't beat around the bush and just brought the contract document signed last time and settled the balance.

After finishing speaking, seeing Jiang Wen freeze, Qin Yao sighed helplessly, "The last time I saw the shopkeeper, his face was not very good. Did he encounter something difficult? It has been so long and it has not been resolved yet?"

"If there is no problem, let's follow the old rules and pay a 50% deposit first." He took two more large silver notes of 500 taels, a total of 1,000 taels, and gently put them in front of Qin Yao.

Companies like Fulong Trading Company, which conducts inspections every year, generally do not deliberately conduct strict inspections on water transportation.

Unless someone else maliciously reports it and interferes with it.

Looks like you're doing something wrong.
