After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

On the second floor of Huashang Pavilion, Liu Yunxiang walked into the box. He first took a look at the man standing in front of the carved window. He was beautiful, wearing a crescent-white robe, with his back on his back. He seemed to be admiring the branches in the vase in front of him. orchid.

Liu Yunxiang looked at the man who was slumped on the Grand Master's chair again. He had a philistine look on his face and was looking at her with interest and a bit of anger.

She took a deep breath and said, "You are the owner of Huashang Pavilion, right?"

An Hong narrowed his eyes, "Your name is Liu Yunxiang?"

"I am Nan Honglou..."

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be a beauty."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "May I ask what your last name is?"

An Hong sat up and reached over, staring at Liu Yunxiang. The more he looked at him, the more amazed he became, "I am the second son of Duke An Guo. My surname is An."

Duke Anguo's Mansion?

Liu Yunxiang's heart tightened. She knew that the backstage of Huashang Pavilion was strong, but she didn't expect that it was at the level of the Duke's Palace. At this moment, she admitted that she had been a little flippant.

This was not Da Rong after all. She didn't have a sign personally given by the Queen Mother, and she didn't have the confidence to ask Yan Mu for help.

"Second Young Master An, please be kind and spare our Nanhonglou." Her voice became much lower.

At this time, the shopkeeper said something in An Hong's ear. An Hong's expression changed. He looked at Liu Yunxiang again and sneered: "You really don't know how high the sky is."

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, "There are business rules. Everyone competes fairly. I don't think I did anything wrong."

An Hong laughed loudly, "Haha, someone actually told me the rules!"

Liu Yunxiang frowned: "A batch of our goods was destroyed, and we lost tens of thousands of taels. Don't you think it's not enough, Mr. An?"

An Hong's face sank: "That little loss is nothing. What I want is for you Nan Honglou to disappear completely from Jin'an! After so many years, no one has dared to steal food from my mouth. You are not the first, but Definitely the last one!”

"But you are a beauty!" An Hong said, stood up, walked to Liu Yunxiang, stretched out his hand to hook Liu Yunxiang's chin, but she dodged it, and he became more interested and whispered: "Women do business, She always has an advantage over men, especially when she looks so attractive."

Liu Yunxiang took two steps back and said, "If you don't let the government release you, I will accuse you of privately growing philodendron!"

An Hong clicked his tongue, "It's quite aggressive, I just happen to like it."

With that said, Anhong wants to take action.

"Boss An, I won't disturb you anymore." At this time, Pei Rong turned around and said.

An Hong forgot about him for a moment, patted his forehead and said: "One hundred pieces of Zhuanhua Yunjin, 1000 taels each, a total of 12 taels. If you send the money back later, we will reach an agreement."

Pei Rong smiled lightly and said, "Let's talk about it later."

"Okay, brother knows that you have to raise money first, so I'll give you a few days of grace." An Hong said generously.

Pei Rong walked out and saw Liu Yunxiang looking at him, his eyes were clear and cold, not asking for help, but just a bit heartwarming.

"Boss Liu, you still owe me money for the meal at Tianxiang Tower. I wonder if it's convenient today?"

Liu Yunxiang's mind changed and he said: "Convenient!"

"Then you can follow me back to Tianxiang Tower to check the account."

"Okay." Liu Yunxiang responded and looked at An Hong again: "Boss An, privately growing vanilla is a felony. If you don't find a way to let our shopkeeper go and unblock Nanhong Building, I will report you."

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, he hurriedly followed Pei Rong out, but as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by An Hong.

"Pei Rong, what do you mean?"

Pei Rong turned around and pretended to be helpless and said: "Second Master An doesn't know that the uncle is the one who owes the debt and the grandson is the one who is chasing the debt. I finally caught the creditor and I have to get the debt back. Please be considerate." Come on, I'll treat you later and make amends to the second young master."

An Hong glanced at the two of them and said with a smile, "Okay, brother, I have to give you face."

At the same time, he said to Liu Yunxiang: "I want to report your second master, right? Whatever."

After crossing the stone bridge, Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that if it were not for Pei Rong today, she might not be able to leave Huashang Pavilion.

"Mr. Pei Xiaohou, thank you for your life-saving grace again."

Pei Rong sighed, "An Guo Gong and Sheng Shang studied together, practiced martial arts, and went to the battlefield together through life and death. They also supported the emperor to ascend the throne and eradicated troubles for him. Therefore, An Guo Gong was highly relied upon by the emperor. Because of this reliance, An Guo Gong's residence was in the north. Money is always going sideways, but An Hong, a dandy, is not good at studying or practicing martial arts, but he is eating, drinking, having fun, bullying men and women, and even killing people and setting fires. He does these bastard things with great success, and he is protected by Duke An Guo. , no one dares to mess with him. Boss Liu, if you could just inquire more, you can't be so reckless today."

"I really didn't ask much." Liu Yunxiang said sincerely.

"This is not Da Rong, and Yan Mu is not the powerful Seventh Highness."

Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, "You know Yan Mu and I..."

Pei Rong shook his head hastily, "I don't know anything."

Liu Yunxiang still wanted to ask, but Pei Rong had already walked forward quickly.

Well, if people don’t want to talk about it, it’s hard for her to ask too much.

"Little Marquis, you said that a person like An Hong is actually the owner of Huashang Pavilion. He is not without merit. At least he has mastered the art of makeup and brocade." Liu Yunxiang said tentatively.

Zhuanghua Yunjin originates from the south of the Da Rong River. Due to its complex techniques, it is difficult for others to master it except for weavers who have been passed down from generation to generation. It is unbelievable that there are people in Beijin who know this kind of weaving technology.

"An Hong married the daughter of our largest weaving shop in Beijin as his wife, and this Huashang Pavilion is his wife's dowry."

"Looking at how complacent he is, he thinks it's his own ability!"

"He only has the ability to eat, drink and have fun."

"A stinky skin, rotten from the inside out."

"He's still pretending, as if he doesn't know what he is."

"You have a vulgar look on your face, why are you pretending to be so suave!"

The two of them were talking to each other, and the more they talked, the more energetic they became, and the more they talked, the more relieved they were.

After venting his anger, Pei Rong coughed dryly and said, "In short, Boss Liu just admits his defeat and doesn't provoke An Hong again."

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I will never!"

Pei Rong raised his eyebrows, "You haven't learned your lesson yet?"

"I came to Beijin with the courage to break the boat and never give up until I achieve my goal."

"Okay then, I wish Boss Liu good luck."

Seeing Pei Rong turning around and walking away, Liu Yunxiang chased after him again, "Boss Pei, Anhong gave you 1000 taels for a piece of Zhuanghua Yunjin. This is clearly a trick on you. I have a batch of goods being shipped here, including Zhuanghua. Yunjin's products are definitely better than Anhong's, and the price is half cheaper than theirs. We can cooperate..."

Pei Rong stopped and turned to look at Liu Yunxiang, looking at Liu Yunxiang helplessly.

"Boss Pei, I am very sincere, what do you think?"

"Boss Liu, I don't have your fearlessness. I just want to do business safely, so I don't want to offend An Hong."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "Are you afraid of him too?"

"I'm not afraid, I just don't want to offend the villain."

"Would you rather lose money on this business?"

"I'd rather lose money."

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment and said: "So you are willing to make a deal that you worked so hard for, but the money you earned goes into An Hong's pocket? Of course, he has always said that you two brothers are good, so you probably really recognize him as your brother. Bar."

"you!"

"Thank you, Boss Pei, for saving me today!"

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, she turned around and left. She knew that Pei Rong hated An Hong and deliberately spoke against him.

But if you want him to cooperate with you, you have to think of another way.
