Chapter 741: Doomed after poison (9)
Chapter 741 The poisoned queen is beyond redemption (9)
The little girl bowed and turned to do other things.
Liu Wanyu was so angry that Zheng Hua also said that the price of newly opened ones would be high if they didn’t know the market. In her opinion, they didn’t know the goods at all, right? Such precious jewelry is only given three thousand taels! Why doesn't she go grab it?
But she is angry, and Liu Wanyu has to be here as a thing. There are too many acquaintances in the city, and she doesn't want to be caught.
"Three thousand is three thousand! Just wait for me, and I will redeem them on the 31st of next month!" Liu Wanyu took the bank note and walked away angrily.
The little girl opened the curtain and went into the back room. By the desk next to the window, sat a woman in blue and white dress, flipping through the account book in her hand.
"Miss, she's gone."
Ning Yue picked up a pen and circled a place on the account book: "Good job, Qiu Xiang."
This little girl was the maid who was once used by Ma Jingyan to cause her and Niuniu to suffer from acne. After entering the palace, Qiuxiang has been working in the small kitchen, so low-key that she hardly feels her presence. Because of this, Liu Wanyu doesn't recognize Qiuxiang.
After several months of experience, Qiuxiang is no longer the former Qiuxiang, at least, she can stand alone. She transfers Qiu Xiang to this newly opened **** shop. A **** shop is a good place to launder money. Regardless of whether black money or red money, if you leave here, it will become white money.
What's interesting is that this **** shop was sold with the money earned from Liu Wanyu, and its first business was still squeezed from Liu Wanyu.
She will let those who want to take advantage of her see clearly what it means to go bankrupt and lose everything!
Liu Wanyu stayed in Qionglou longer and longer, and many ladies' gatherings were rejected for various reasons, but some were not easy to reject.
On this day, she made an appointment with Mrs. Green and Mrs. Purple at home to play leaf cards.
"Liu Wanyu, I heard that you often go to Qionglou recently? You didn't eat that drug, did you?" asked the lady in green.
Madam Ziyi played a card and said, "Don't touch that thing! Last time, the opera singer from Wangchuanfang asked me to eat it, and asked me to draw a strange thing, but I refused."
The lady in green also played a card: "Me too. Wu Shi San, it's okay to eat, it's not expensive anyway, and I don't think much about it. But I heard that the addiction to drugs is very strong, and you can't quit after eating it." , I don’t want to lose my fortune.”
There was a layer of cold sweat on Liu Wanyu's forehead: "You can call someone else, I have something to do, I will ask you another day."
The lady in purple and the lady in green looked at each other.
The three thousand taels that Liu Wanyu exchanged from the **** shop were quickly spent. In the past, three thousand taels could buy one and a half boxes, but now they can only buy one box. She had a big fight with Mama Rong, saying that Mama Rong's business is not kind!
Rong's mother sneered: "The highest price wins, my Qionglou has always been this way! Madam, if you don't have money, go to another place to enjoy it! I heard that the Rouge Building on Beier Street is good and has a lot of things!"
The Rouge Building has a nice name, but it is a place where a group of poor people go. The things there are all Wushi powder with extremely low purity, and there is no shadow of Afulong!
Liu Wanyu suffered from drug addiction.
Zheng Hua wrung a wet handkerchief, wiped her forehead and said softly: "Madam, if you are in a hurry to spend money, I know a brother who specializes in lending money to people, and he can borrow as much as he wants."
"Really?" Liu Wanyu's eyes, which had already lost their spirits, suddenly flashed a gleam of light.
"Of course, in our line of business, you must know a few brothers on the road." Zheng Hua gently stroked her face, "Just a little, he makes a lot of money."
Liu Wanyu took the first step in usury.
"Ten thousand taels of silver, 20% interest, if you don't pay it back after a month, the interest will be doubled!" The strong man pressed Liu Wanyu's finger, and drew a bet on the black and white IOU.
Liu Wanyu laughed maniacally, and ran to Wangchuanfang with the banknotes in her hands!
The strong man spat, and handed the IOU to a burly man hiding in the dark: "Master, what you ordered has been done."
Geng Zhongzhi gave him a bag of silver, turned around, walked to the carriage at the end of the alley, and handed the 10,000 taels of usury IOU to Ning Yue.
Ning Yue raised the corners of her lips coolly: "Go home."
Ning Yue went to the Wenfang Courtyard to greet the princess, and the princess asked about the Huichun Hall: "Ah, by the way, I have been busy for the past few days, and I didn't have time to ask you, how is the matter of Mrs. Sikong's shareholding? Do you have any talk about it?" OK?"
"It's settled, I'll let her invest in the shares at the end of October, and share 20% of it with her." Ning Yue said truthfully.
"Why so late?" Wang Hao asked in wonder.
Ning Yue smiled slightly and explained: "My daughter-in-law also thinks it's a little late, but there's no other way. The accounts for this quarter can't be redone, and the profits are all used for renovations. There is no extra for her. Of course, she is The concubine mother made a guarantee, and the daughter-in-law has to show face to the concubine mother, so to express my apology, I told her to charge her less than one thousand taels of silver."
The concubine has enough face, what else is she dissatisfied with? He even secretly thought in his heart that even though he is a concubine's daughter-in-law, she is no worse than Sun Yao, and he should treat her better in the future.
Ning Yue lowered her eyes. She is a good daughter-in-law in the eyes of the princess, a good sister-in-law in the eyes of Sun Yao, a good daughter in the eyes of Lanzhi, and a good wife in the eyes of Xuan Yin. Heavy headaches and chilling identities.
Several people were eating, and Biqing reported that the uncle had come.
Guo Kuang seldom came to the palace. At such an embarrassing time, the concubine hurriedly asked someone to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and welcomed the elder brother to sit beside him: "Elder brother hasn't eaten yet, right? I didn't know you came, we all used some .”
"It's okay, I've eaten." Guo Kuang waved his hand.
Ning Yue, Sun Yao and Qin'er got up and saluted him.
He squeezed out a smile and nodded, his eyes paused on Ning Yue, glanced at Sun Yao, and looked at Qin'er: "It's grown so big, I almost didn't recognize it."
Qin'er smiled shyly.
The concubine motioned the three of them to sit down, handed the chopsticks to the elder brother, and said softly: "Then eat some more casually, the prince and Xuan Zhao should be back in a while."
"I'm not looking for them."
Wang Hao was taken aback for a moment, and then heard Guo Kuang say: "They have been in the military camp all year round, so they should be fine."
"What's the matter, brother?" The princess looked at him wonderingly.
Guo Kuang's expression was tinged with seriousness: "It's like this. Recently, a new banned drug called Afulong has been released in the city. It is more powerful than Wushisan. The government attaches great importance to it and is arresting drug dealers. People who take medicine. It looks like a pastry, and if you accidentally eat it, you don’t know it. I just remind you, when you go out, don’t eat what others give you, especially you.”
As he spoke, he looked at Ning Yue, "You are always doing business outside, and you meet a lot of people, so don't accidentally get drugs!"
Ning Yue smiled slightly: "Thank you uncle for reminding me, I will be very careful."
