Gold sparring [Comprehensive + Sword III]
Chapter 20 Rising to Fame 10
In mid-July, Mr. Zhuge finally came to Hangzhou from the capital under the notification of Huaxiyun.
He came alone, not with his three brothers who were also listed as arrestees.
It may be because he already knew the identity of the chief executive officer of Tsingyi Building from Huaxiyun, but when he actually saw Huo Xiu, he didn't show any surprise.
He only thanked Ye Weixing and the other five very sincerely.
Mr. Zhuge said: "The Tsing Yi Building has been a disaster for a long time in Jianghu. I wanted to investigate it thoroughly early in the morning, but I still couldn't find out its owner. Thanks to a few of you this time."
Ye Weixing waved at him with a smile and said, "It's just a coincidence, if you hadn't been investigating, I wouldn't have caught Huo Xiu in a panic."
She thought she was telling the truth, but Mr. Zhuge still insisted on thanking her well. He said that after he settled the case, he would definitely go to the emperor and let the world know who was responsible for this matter.
Ye Weixing: "..."
So here comes the question, will the emperor give her another 1 taels of gold?
To be honest, compared with Huo Xiu's Tsing Yi [-]th floor, Xue Xiaoren's killer organization, which has not yet been fully formed, is really not enough.
Ye Weixing got enough of the limelight that time with Xue Xiaoren, and this time Qingyi Building was also uprooted by her, and their names might appear in the market storybook again.
The three of Chu Liuxiang were fine, they quickly got used to it after experiencing it once, but Yidianhong probably still suffered from the sequelae of a killer, and was very uncomfortable with being mentioned frequently.
So after the emperor's imperial decree came down, he squatted in the inn for several days without going out.
Ye Weixing was a little worried that his personality would affect his swordsmanship, but after secretly watching his current state of sword practice a few times, he finally felt relieved.
Ji Bingyan: "He's your little brother, can't you just look at it aboveboard?"
Ye Weixing: "I look aboveboard, he will be nervous."
Teenage boys, no way.
Ji Bingyan: "..." Forget it and change the subject.
He asked Ye Weixing: "Now that the land is in hand and the money is enough for you to build a villa, do you still want to go to sea with us?"
Ye Weixing didn't expect him to ask this question, so he was a little surprised.
But the next moment, she raised the corners of her lips and asked, "Why, do you really want to get rid of me quickly?"
Ji Bingyan immediately rolled her eyes back and said, "If the boat is mine, of course I won't take you."
Ye Weixing let out a hey, and finally nodded at him: "Of course we have to go out to sea, didn't we agree on this before, but you probably have to wait for me for another two days."
"What are you going to do?" Ji Bingyan was puzzled.
"You'll know in two days!" She blinked, which was a rare trick.
Given that her plan still included going to sea with them, and Chu Liuxiang had delayed picking up the boat for more than half a month, it didn't matter if she waited two more days.
Two days later, the second son of the Hua family, who took over Hua Ruling's mantle and had done several big deals, came to Hangzhou.
He brought a lot of men with him, and as soon as he arrived, he went straight to the inn where Ye Weixing and the others were staying, expressing that he wanted to see Ye Weixing.
Unlike Hua Xiyun, the second young master of the Hua family, who was struggling in the shopping mall, was very particular about pomp and pomp, and took over the entire inn lobby as soon as he arrived.
When Ye Weixing came down from upstairs, what he saw was a scene of several maids surrounding him, squeezing his shoulders and beating his legs.
She was speechless for a moment, but considering what she had discussed with Hua Xiyun, she went downstairs without hesitation.
When they were entrusted by Xue Yiren to go to Hua's house to serve as Hua Xiyun's bodyguards, the second young master was still negotiating business with people outside the customs, not in the south of the Yangtze River, so this is indeed the first time Ye Weixing met him .
Ye Weixing went downstairs and walked towards him, but before he could think of an opening line, he preempted him and opened his mouth.
Second Young Master Hua said, "Miss Ye, sit down first."
"My elder brother has already told me everything about the Tsing Yi Building." He waved away the maids and straightened up as he spoke, and poured Ye Weixing a cup of tea with a very elegant gesture and pushed it over, "Miss Ye's Meaning, I almost understand."
"So?" Ye Weixing always felt that he still had something to say later.
"That's why I want to discuss a business with Miss Ye." When it came to business, his original slightly carefree expression changed almost immediately.
Ye Weixing: "What business?"
He continued: "Miss Ye discussed with my elder brother earlier that the land in the north of the city would be given to the Hua family in exchange for the Hua family's supervision of the hidden sword villa for Miss Ye, right?"
Ye Weixing nodded: "Yes."
He said that the land in the north of the city is close to the gate of Hangzhou, which is especially suitable for building a warehouse. It should be very useful for a rich family like the Hua family who do business all over the world and like to hoard land.
So Ye Weixing made another favor and gave it to Hua's family in exchange for a friendship that she thought would not be lost, and Huaxiyun was also very interesting, he knew that Ye Weixing would have a relationship with him in the future. When Chu Liuxiang and the others went out to sea, they simply suggested that the Hua family send someone to help her build the hidden sword villa, so that when she came back from the sea, even if it hadn't been completely built, at least there would be a prototype of the villa.
The two happily finished discussing the business in the letter, but when Hua Xiyun, the second younger brother who specializes in business, came, he said that he wanted to negotiate another deal.
Reason told Ye Weixing that she had to think carefully about their next conversation.
Sure enough, Second Young Master Hua's next sentence was that the matter of supervising the villa is fine, but he doesn't want the land, he wants the building outside the building.
Ye Weixing: "..."
He talked eloquently: "As far as I know, Ms. Ye is not good at running a business. Now that the Qingyi building has collapsed, and the building outside the building is empty, it is better to leave it to me than to let it become an ordinary restaurant. Guaranteed to give Miss Ye [-]% of the profit every year, how about it?"
When he said this, he was quite confident. He felt that as long as Ye Weixing was not stupid, he should agree to it, because although the building outside the building was valuable, it would never be as valuable as in his hands in the hands of her who has no business acumen. It is self-evident which of the two choices will bring her greater benefits.
But Ye Weixing shook his head very resolutely: "I'm sorry, Second Young Master, this business cannot be discussed."
Second Young Master Hua: "?!"
He was puzzled: "Why? This is definitely a profitable business for Ms. Ye."
Ye Weixing smiled and nodded: "Yes, I won't lose any money. But since I have the option to earn more, why should I choose less?"
To put it bluntly, the Second Young Master Hua thinks that she doesn't know how to do business and can't manage the Louwailou well. Regarding this point, Ye Weixing has nothing to refute, she really doesn't understand.
But Ji Bingyan understands!
The fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields, not to mention that the building outside the building is still on the site of West Lake, how could she give it away.
Seeing her insistence, Second Young Master Hua didn't force her, just stared at her and sighed: "If Miss Ye regrets it in the future, you can exchange the land in the north of the city with me at any time."
Ye Weixing: "What about the supervision of the villa?"
He laughed loudly: "Since I have taken Miss Ye's land, I will naturally do my best to supervise and repair the Hidden Sword Villa for Miss Ye, so Miss Ye can go to sea without worry."
With his words, Ye Weixing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Some of her bad friends are good at stealing things, and some are good at doing business, but building houses——
For the sake of Hidden Sword Villa's future appearance in the arena, let's leave it to the professionals!
Her work in Hangzhou was over, and the few of them could finally go back to Gusu to pick up the boat and prepare to go to sea.
On the way, Ye Weixing told them that the second son of the Hua family wanted to ask her for the building outside.
Ji Bingyan became alert almost instantly: "Don't tell me you agreed?!"
Ye Weixing: "Of course not, I'm not stupid."
Hu Tiehua scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face: "But I think that Mr. Hua is right. Lou Wai Lou in his hands must be more profitable than Lao Ye's, right?"
Ye Weixing: "I can't compare with him, but I have an old concubine, and he has agreed to help me manage the accounts."
Ji Bingyan: "What nonsense are you talking about, when did I agree?"
Ye Weixing stroked his chin with a half-smile and said, "Last time I asked you to manage my accounts, you said that I haven't bought the land yet and the villa hasn't been built yet, but now the land is mine and the villa is also being built, you still don't know what to do?" Won't you help me?"
Ji Bingyan snorted and turned her head away, and by the way, speeded up her journey, and reached the front in a short while.
The remaining four people stared at his back and laughed in unison, even a little smile appeared on their blushing faces.
Hu Tiehua pointed to Ji Bingyan's back and said, "Lao Ye, let me tell you, don't look at what he is doing now, when we come back from the sea, he is probably more anxious to return to Hangzhou than you."
Chu Liuxiang nodded in agreement: "He has been like this since he was a child. He speaks harshly, and when he really needs his help, he runs faster than anyone else."
Ye Weixing patted the horse's back and laughed, saying I know.
Four days later, they arrived in Gusu.
Chu Liuxiang said that the boatman he was looking for lived at the junction of the two prefectures of Gusu and Songjiang, and it was very easy to find, but this time it took almost a month to pick up the boat, and I was afraid that he would be ridiculed.
"Is it such a big temper?" Ye Weixing asked casually.
"Well, no matter how hot-tempered he is, some people want to pay a lot of money to let him build a boat." Chu Liuxiang said, "It is said that his ancestors are descendants of Luban, and his family has a pair of skillful hands. Whether it is building houses or boats, they are the best. Yes, but he only liked building boats, so he became a shipwright."
Ye Weixing was absent-minded at first, but after catching the words "Heir of Luban" later, he suddenly made a bold guess.
She tentatively asked Chu Liuxiang: "Is this family surnamed Zhu?"
Chu Liuxiang nodded: "Yes, Xiaoye has heard of it too?"
Ye Weixing: "... I've heard of it." But it's probably not the same channel as you.
Fortunately, this shipbuilder surnamed Zhu is quite famous in Gusu, so it is normal for her to have heard of it. After all, she lived in Yongcui Villa for more than a month.
That evening, under the leadership of Chu Liuxiang, several people found Zhu's house.
Before entering the door, Hu Tiehua accidentally stepped on something, and after a click, a wooden cage fell from above and locked the five of them together.
Ye Weixing: "..."
The owner inside probably also heard the commotion, and slowly leaned half of his body out of the room: "Who?"
Chu Liuxiang immediately greeted him respectfully: "Mr. Zhu, it's me. I'm here to fetch the boat."
The man's eyes widened in an instant: "You still know to come to fetch the boat?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two other little heads popped out of the room, they looked only four or five years old.
One of them rolled his eyes in disbelief: "Someone will actually step on your mechanism, Zhu Ting, you made it so obvious."
The other nodded lazily: "He is stupid."
Hu Tiehua: "????"
Aren't these two kids a bit in need of a beating?
He came alone, not with his three brothers who were also listed as arrestees.
It may be because he already knew the identity of the chief executive officer of Tsingyi Building from Huaxiyun, but when he actually saw Huo Xiu, he didn't show any surprise.
He only thanked Ye Weixing and the other five very sincerely.
