The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Chapter 77: The Way of Doing Business in Huya

Shen Yancheng also understood Xie Shuting's thoughts. He pondered for a moment and asked with a tone of inquiry: "Miss! Is the master clear about this matter?"

"Father has understood, Lord Shen, just carry out the order."

"Yes!~"

Shen Yancheng leaned forward and responded, then raised his eyes and looked at Xie Shuting, who seemed a little embarrassed and asked, "Miss! Do you have any good plans?"

"To put it bluntly, doing business is buying and selling. You buy and sell items to make a profit from the price difference. There is no plan. Just go for it boldly. As long as the accounts of the household office are clear, I will ensure that you will be safe."

Faced with such a clear explanation of the business philosophy, Shen Yancheng was inevitably shocked.

At this moment, he was a little dazed, wondering if Xie Shuting in front of him was really a lady from a noble family or a daughter of an official.

If not, she would have exuded a rare nobleness in every move. If not, how could a noble lady from a wealthy family know the ways of business so well?

Looking at Shen Yancheng who was still in a daze, Xie Shuting couldn't help but frown and said, "Sir Shen! Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Shen Yancheng suddenly came back to his senses and leaned forward and said, "I understand, but..."

"Lord Shen already has a good plan in mind, so why bother asking me for the answer?" Xie Shuting stroked the teacup and smiled softly.

Shen Yancheng was startled and suddenly came to his senses and looked at Xie Shuting.

With just one glance, he knew the intelligence of the woman in front of him. Now that he understood the deep meaning of her words, he no longer had any worries.

"Thank you for your guidance, Miss. I will definitely live up to your expectations." Shen Yancheng said with a firm look in his eyes.

"Yeah!" Xie Shuting nodded slightly in response.

She believed in Shen Yancheng's ability. After all, without any tricks, he would not be jointly recommended by major merchants and get the position of head of the Household Affairs Office.

After getting the consent, Shen Yancheng leaned over and saluted the two of them, then walked out of the back court with his head held high.

When Xie Ningzhi saw Shen Yancheng leaving, he smiled playfully and said, "Little sister! Do you want to write an inscription for the plaques of Huichun Hall and the private school?"

"Brother, please don't laugh at me. Father is still alive, and I have to ask him to write the inscription no matter what." Xie Shuting said softly.

Xie Ningzhi slapped his forehead in annoyance, and said with a look of understanding: "It's my brother's fault. Are you going to take care of the plaque or..."

"It's my brother who has gone."

Xie Shuting raised her eyebrows when she said this, and smiled: "Does it mean that my brother is afraid of my father, or is it that my brother is afraid that my father will urge him to get married?"

"If you can't chat, just talk. You know about the marriage. My father has allowed me to decide on my own." Xie Ningzhi rolled his eyes at Xie Shuting, then left the back court angrily, fanning himself.

Seeing that her young master was somewhat arrogant, Lian Qiao did not dare to delay. She just bowed from a distance and quickly followed him.

Xie Shuting nodded, and then looked at Xie Ningzhi's deflated back, and couldn't help but sigh: "Marriage autonomy is a blessing that people in this era can hardly get. I hope that brother will never have another beautiful woman in this life."

"Era? What era?" Lian Xi asked with blinking eyes.

“Never mind the era.”

While speaking, Xie Shuting rolled her eyes at Lian Xi, then changed the subject and said, "Xi'er! Did Lian Yue say when this year's year-end banquet will start?"

"Miss! Sister Lian Xi hasn't sent a message yet, so I guess it may be inconvenient." Lian Xi responded softly.

"Okay! Tell me as soon as you get the news."

"Yes!~" Lian Xi leaned over and responded quickly.

Xie Shuting rolled up her sleeves, glanced at the account book on the table, rubbed her brows tiredly and said, "Xi'er! Help me grind the ink."

"Miss, are you going to write a letter or paint a picture?"

"Brother just asked for a plaque, but it's inconvenient for me to do it since my father is here. However, the private school is also my hard work. These children are not only the pillars of the Song Dynasty, but also the future of Laigu County. I will leave a painting for them."

"Yes!~"

Lian Xi responded and walked quickly into the house, took out the four treasures of the study, spread them out in the yard, and laid out the ink.

Xie Shuting concentrated her mind and calmed down. As the scent of ink emerged, she slowly opened her eyes from her closed state.

She took the brush handed to her by Lian Xi, lifted her sleeves, showing the ladylike demeanor of a girl in the boudoir, and wrote an inspirational masterpiece.

......

At the Laigu County Office, several carriages had already packed up the evidence. Just in case, Qi Yue also specially arranged two empty carriages to confuse the audience.

Zhao Zhen stood in the corridor, looking at the people in the courtyard who were already ready, and said with some concerns in his heart: "Kejun! Isn't Miss Xie exaggerating too much?"

"Your Highness! Miss Xie is very intelligent. Since she has seen through the Second Young Master's methods, I think there should be no mistakes." Yan Shuang agreed.

"Hey!~"

Zhao Zhen sighed helplessly, still a little worried in his heart, "If Miss Xie's guess is correct, there must be dangers lurking on the way. Can they return to Beijing smoothly? And can I..."

"Your Highness! I will protect Your Highness at all costs and take Your Highness back to the capital." Yan Shuang immediately bowed his head and said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen quickly reached out and helped Yan Shuang up, gently patted his shoulder and said, "With Kejun's words, I feel at ease."

Unexpectedly! As soon as Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He inexplicably recalled the icy look in Xie Shuting's eyes when Yan Shuang was first injured.

From time to time, I could hear Xie Shu-ting's words: "If Ke Jun's life is in danger, I will make anyone who hurt him pay it back a hundredfold."

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but shudder and said, "Kejun! There's no need to be so decisive. Since Miss Xie is sure that she can send us back to Beijing, I think it shouldn't be wrong."

When Yan Shuang heard this, a trace of obsession suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise: "Yes! I am also wondering how there can be such a wonderful woman in the world."

"Oh! Could it be that Kejun had known Miss Xie before?" Zhao Zhen couldn't help but ask.

"Your Highness!" Yan Shuang chuckled.

He shook his head helplessly, as if the other party was asking a question that he already knew the answer to, which made Zhao Zhen feel a little abrupt.

"I am overstepping my authority. But I know Jun and it seems like this is the first time I have met Miss Xie."

When Zhao Zhen said this, a hint of gloom suddenly appeared in his eyes. He also didn't understand why Xie Shuting always had a hostile feeling when she was with him.

On the other hand, Yan Shuang's shy face and affectionate eyes showed that there was something strange going on.

While the two were thinking, Qi Yue stepped forward and said, "Your Highness! We are all ready and we are ready to set off now."

"Yeah!~" Zhao Zhen nodded without saying anything.

Yan Shuang glanced at the convoy and said with some worry, "On this trip, you should raise the flag high and let the prefectures along the way know that you are the Ministry of Punishment escorting the prisoners. Taking the open road can avoid many crises."

"Thank you for the reminder, Master Yan."

Qi Yue bowed his head to express his gratitude, and immediately gestured to the convoy behind him. The entire team marched out of the government office's main gate in a mighty procession.
