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

It’s not easy to do business, especially if you have to deal with debt defaulters. Because she is also a businessman, she is particularly sympathetic to them.

Liu Yunxiang coughed dryly, then looked at Mrs. Li and praised: "It turns out that Mrs. Li is here to pay everyone's debt today. I guess you also know that it is not easy for us to do business. You are worthy of being the wife of a parent official. She is thoughtful and considerate." That's great. If Li Futai can marry you, it will be a blessing that has been cultivated in ten lifetimes."

After saying that, she turned around and asked the owner of Fengxian Tower, "But we have notified other families. We can't keep Mrs. Li waiting for too long."

Business people are all good at it. The owner of Fengxian Tower naturally knew that the woman in front of him was collecting debts for them, so he immediately cooperated and said: "You reminded me, I will urge other companies here. Mrs. Li's time is precious and she can't afford to wait. ."

The owner of Fengxian Tower hurried over as he said that. Mrs. Li didn't stop her even if she wanted to.

This time, she panicked a little and started to sweat. Since she took office with Li Huai, relying on her status as Mrs. Futai, she has owed a lot of debts from eating and drinking on this street. She has never thought about paying back, but if she really wants to pay back, it will be a long time. A lot of money.

Mrs. Li wiped her sweat and smiled reluctantly at Liu Yunxiang: "Mrs. Qi, Qi, I still have something to do at home, so I'm going back first."

"do not!"

Liu Yunxiang grabbed the seventh lady and said, "We haven't drank this tea yet."

"I can't drink anymore."

"Then have some snacks."

"I'm not hungry."

"Then sit down and chat for a while."

Liu Yunxiang pulled the seventh lady to sit down, and said with a smile: "It turns out that we came here just before leaving the cabinet. We met at that time, right?"

Liu Yunxiang obviously didn't remember this sentence of 'right'. The corners of Mrs. Li's mouth twitched. No wonder she looked perfunctory when she mentioned the past.

Under Liu Yunxiang's warm reception, stewards from other families soon came with the bill, and Liu Yunxiang asked them to give the bill to the maid.

"Go and get the money and pay it back to everyone so that your wife can go back and rest early."

When the maid saw Mrs. Li nodding gloomily, she had no choice but to go back with the bill.

The first maid came back first, took 500 taels of silver and gave it back to the steward of Luoxia Silk and Satin Manor. When the other maid went, it was going to be dark soon.

All the housekeepers were waiting nearby, and Mrs. Li couldn't escape even if she wanted to.

Finally, the maidservant arrived, and she brought the accountant to the house. They did the accounting one by one. In the end, all 3 taels of silver went out.

"Tsk tsk, Mrs. Li, you can really buy it."

Mrs. Li's face was turning pale. She stood up shakily, said something random, and hurriedly took the maid away. He staggered every step of the way, but his steps were very fast, as if he was running away.

Others didn't know, but the steward of Luoxia Silk Shop and the owner of Fengxian Building knew that it was Liu Yunxiang's help that made Mrs. Li willing to pay off the debt, so the two of them stayed to express their gratitude to Liu Yunxiang.

"There's no need to say thank you." Liu Yunxiang looked at the steward of Luoxia Silk and Satin Shop, "Can I meet your landlady?"

"This..." The steward was a little embarrassed.

"You ask her what she means first. If she doesn't see you, I won't force you."

Seeing that Liu Yunxiang's attitude was so sincere and that he had helped them a lot just now, the steward nodded and said, "Madam, you and I can come this way."

Liu Yunxiang said goodbye to the shopkeeper of Fengxianlou and followed the manager around to the backyard of the silk and satin shop. The steward apologized repeatedly and asked Liu Yunxiang to wait at the door while he went in first to report.

"Please forgive me. Our landlady rarely sees outsiders. She will be angry if we let you in."

"I can understand, and I hope the steward can give me a good word."

"sure."

When the steward went in, Liu Yunxiang was waiting at the door of Chuihua. By now it was getting dark, lamps were lit inside and outside the house, and maids came in and out occasionally.

"Girl, the proprietress of Luoxia Silk and Satin Store has such a big air. There is no one who refuses to see anyone when she opens her door to do business." Zi Jin curled his lips and said.

Liu Yunxiang hissed at her, "Don't say that. This boss lady has experienced something that made her like this."

At this time, there was movement inside, and a tall and round figure was invited out. As he walked out, he turned around and kept talking.

"Sister, please give your brother some face and meet this seventh lady."

"Brother, let me tell you, she is no ordinary businessman."

"There is someone above her, and she cannot be offended!"

"Ouch!"

This person was none other than a senior member of the Communist Party of China. Because he was too preoccupied with talking and did not pay attention to the steps, he missed his step and almost fell down. Stumbling down the steps, he slapped his chest in fear.

"Sister, did you listen to what my brother said?"

"Uncle, please don't force Madam." The maid who sent him out said helplessly.

"Why did I force her? She can't live without seeing people for the rest of her life, right?"

"It's not like you don't know what's going on, madam."

"But her life is still long, she can't stay like this."

"Uncle, please stop talking and go back first."

After the maid finished speaking, she turned around and went in.

The senior member sighed heavily, turned around and walked out. When he walked to the door and saw Liu Yunxiang, he was stunned for a moment, "Why are you here?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled and said, "It turns out that Gao Yuanwai is the boss's brother."

"Brother is not helpful either. You have also seen that she refuses to see you."

"I still have to thank Gao Yuanwai."

Gao Yuanwai thought of something and exclaimed, "So the person Manager Li just mentioned was you who helped them collect debts from Mrs. Li?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Yes."

"Aren't you afraid of offending Li Futai?"

"Do you think I'm afraid?"

After all, he also knew that her identity was not simple.

The senior member gave a dry laugh and said, "Of course you are not afraid."

After speaking, he sighed again, "Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials, and merchants have not dared to do so. Mrs. Li owed so many debts, and everyone came to ask for it, but there was no explanation. Everyone was worried, but Worrying comes and goes, who would dare to really offend these officials, especially local officials. To say that they work for the people is better to say that they are local snakes, and everyone is afraid of them."

"What about Mr. Yang?"

"When Mr. Yang was here, there were no local snakes in our Yanzhou. Whether it was the common people or businessmen, they lived with their heads held high, unlike now where they have to clamp their tails."

Liu Yunxiang exhaled, "An official like Yang He is indeed rare."

"So Madam Seven, you must save Mr. Yang. We Yanzhou people will remember your great kindness."

"The high official's words are serious." She paused for a moment and continued: "The Seventh Highness came to Yanzhou to redress the grievances of Master Yang. If you know anything or have any grievances, you can go to Wanchun Garden. Tell His Highness Seventh Prince."

"Isn't His Majesty the Seventh Prince also a member of the imperial court?"

"So people in Yan don't believe in the imperial court?"

"This……"

At this time, the steward came out with an embarrassed look on his face, saying that it was his boss's wife who still refused to see her.

Liu Yunxiang nodded to express his understanding, "Then I'll come visit you another day."

Liu Yunxiang and Gao Yuanwai walked out together. Walking on the street, Liu Yunxiang asked Gao Yuanwai: "What happened to the fire at Luoxia Silk and Satin Factory ten years ago?"

When Gao Yunxiang heard Liu Yunxiang mention this, his face turned livid, "That fire... someone set it on fire."
