son-in-law

Chapter 150 Set the storm (three)
Waves of discussions and confrontations spread out from the council hall, forming a fierce and noisy sound wave, which gradually spread to the small square outside the council hall and the surrounding area. All kinds of discussions were ringing. Their respective arguments and logic sometimes cause a little controversy, and even if it does not expand, it is rare in the Su family in the past.

"5 taels, 1 taels...there is more than 2 taels over there. I have already said that the big house has been messing around over the years..."

"I saw the business of the batch of red cloths in Raozhou at the beginning. They always said that there was no money left. If it weren't for this..."

"This kind of thing is completely messed up. Look, after today, I don't know how many problems will happen..."

"I guess it's at least a shortfall of 20 taels, maybe more...I don't know how to hide it..."

"Second sister will definitely not be able to do it now..."

From Su Tingguang who was the first to stand up and take out some accounts in his hands, to the No.2 and No.3 shopkeepers, it seemed that something hidden under the shady explosion exploded like a bomb, and these similar statements , it has already spread uncontrollably outside, buzzing and buzzing one by one.In the meeting hall, people with two bedrooms and three bedrooms in the big house are arguing about the causes of these accounts.

In fact, it is not uncommon to have a similar situation in such a case where the business operations of a family are divided into three branches.If you really carefully hunt down the whereabouts of every piece of silver money, these funds may not necessarily be a big deficit. When the general ledger is calculated at the end of each year, the profits and development obtained in one year may not be worse than the two-bedroom and three-bedroom. is the proof.It's just that Su Tan'er has indeed drawn funds to operate matters related to the royal business on the premise of sacrificing the possibility of greater development. At this time, if there is no possibility of making up, once it is exposed, it will become Su Tan'er. Some very unsightly places in the accounts.

Su Wengui and the others outside the council room don't need to think about it. Even if they mention the deficit of Su Tan'er's subordinates to one million taels, there is no psychological burden.For the people in the council hall, when several shopkeepers belonging to the big room have come out to confess something in their hands, it seems that there is no need to consider things in a purely rational direction for a while. From the first appearance of Su Tingguang, all kinds of arguments have suddenly become a quarrel.

By this time, the quarrel continued, but some of the leading people in each room had gradually quieted down. Su Zhongkan returned to his seat, resting and drinking tea, while Su Yunfang was talking with him. Yu Daxian frowned and discussed some things. On the side of the big room, Su Yunsong had gradually realized that some things were irreversible. He had been arguing about those accounts for a while, but later discovered that he might argue again. Go down, it's useless.

Some things have already revealed their clues in the still noisy quarrel at this time. No matter what the outcome of the quarrel is, what is displayed in front of the old people above is the fact that the big house is no longer favored, and people's hearts are beginning to disagree.If it was someone else, there might still be a chance, but as a woman, Su Tan'er's identity is already unable to withstand such a failure. This matter has nothing to do with right or wrong.

Wherever the spear was directed, Su Tan'er could only sit quietly beside her father, occasionally raising her head to see all this.

After Su Zhongkan finished his tea, he stood up and tried to mediate between the two parties who were still arguing in the venue, then walked back and sat down.The quarrel seems to be still fierce. Some members of the big room who know that if this matter falls, they will inevitably lose power are still fighting, and many people in the second room and the third room are eager to accompany them.Naturally, Su Zhongkan was not trying to persuade the fight, but the arranged things had already happened. After a while, the debate below would subside, and the old people above, and even the patriarch's father, should be asked to do that logically. Conclusion.

From the beginning of this meeting, my father's mood was not high, and the seventh uncle took care of all the words. He just kept watching, but occasionally became more serious.He understands the reason for this. The second niece has the ability, and the father has put a lot of effort into it. Besides, the old man has hoped that the family is in a good condition all these years. A sudden accident in the big house, or even a split, will naturally disappoint him. , lost.

But no matter what, father, when these things are in front of you, there is no way to do it. Yun Fang and I are not violent, they are just smooth sailing.Tan'er really lost too much this time, and this kind of thing happened to eldest brother... You can understand after all...

In the past two months, things have finally developed to this day, and the situation has become clear to this point.On the father's side, he should be able to accept all this. Su Zhongkan sighed in his heart, waiting for the last quarter of an hour or half an hour to pass. He looked at Su Yunfang on the side, and the third brother smiled there. , spread his hands silently.After a while, Su Zhongkan noticed a small change above in this noisy quarrel...

Su Chonghua was a little bored, and because of this, he was probably the first to notice some of the changes in the group of chiefs above.

From the moment Su Tingguang came out, there was a quarrel below. The clan chiefs above did not interfere, but they were already frowning, and occasionally whispered into each other's ears.This is very normal. The bottom has been noisy, and the top has been summarizing and summarizing these things.The two old men beside Su Yu were the second and fourth in the family. Occasionally, the second uncle, who didn't usually talk much, would frown and chat with Su Yu. He was probably worried about the family. Yu may answer a sentence or two, but in his eyes, he just stared at the chaos below, and he didn't have much intention to make a statement.

This old man has always been the center of the whole family. Even if he forced the palace, everyone had to give him a process of mental preparation. All of this is shown here today, in fact, to persecute this group of clan chiefs, and finally forced him to do it. Prepared for summaries and statements.

Because he's been acting too calm, there's a little movement in this intense and chaotic scene that's almost ignored.At a certain moment, when Er Bofu came over to speak in a low voice, Su Yu also turned his head and responded with a few words. Then, he took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed it to the old man next to him to see.

This may be the first time that Su Yu has made a clear and purposeful statement after the meeting for so long. Of course, everyone below was still focusing on the quarrel at this time. They didn't find this. They all knew that the more the quarrel here. The more clear it is, the more helpful the person above is to summarize the results.Su Chonghua didn't have much curiosity about the pieces of paper for a while. It was only after a while that he noticed the change in the expression of the old man when he looked at the paper from above.

This Su Yu's brother frowned when he read the first page. He looked at Su Yu, and after turning the page, he said something to Su Yu, and then continued to read, the more he went. Looking back, the more serious his expression became.

Perhaps... that was the draft of San Bo's decision... Su Chonghua thought so.But what happened next was slightly different.

Several old people around began to notice the few pieces of paper here, and someone leaned over, and then seemed to be asking Su Yu about something with concern, Su Yu also turned his head and answered a few words, then, one or two. One, three, these clan chiefs seem to have no longer cared about the debate below, and discussed the few papers above.

When Su Zhongkan noticed it, the whole situation had become like this. Those pieces of paper attracted the old men beside Su Yu, and the people sitting next to him also noticed this situation, come here. Take a look, then look surprised.

Su Yu looked down, let the brothers in the clan beside him discuss, the quarrel below, and then also in a slight confusion, began to weaken.

Before long, the debate below died down.The discussion at the top was still going on. There were also one or two old people who looked down at the papers and looked down. It was very complicated. Su Zhongkan looked at Su Yunfang and didn't quite understand the meaning of the papers that suddenly appeared. Looking at Su Tan'er's side, Su Boyong, who was already weak after the injury, still lowered his head and remained silent, while Su Tan'er was still quietly unable to see what he was thinking.At this time, there was finally the sound of a crutch post on the ground above.

As the patriarch, Su Yu, who had watched all this from beginning to end, finally got up from his seat at this time. Having already sat for so long, he looked a little tired, and his eyes swept across the audience.

"It's all... the quarrel is over, I can hear it almost." The old man walked over slowly.After the meeting room was quiet, the arguments gradually subsided outside the meeting room. Su Wengui and others looked in from the door, waiting for the outcome of the matter.

"In the past four months, a lot of things have happened in our Su family. There are external troubles, and after the external troubles, there are also internal worries." He sighed, and began to speak slowly, "I am old, and some At times, I will feel a little powerless, since Boyong's assassination, I have probably felt this."

"In the past four months, everyone knows the problems of the Su family. Today, everyone came back from various places to solve these problems. Some people also told me, brother, I know you are reluctant, but Some decisions have to be made after all. I actually know..."

Noticing their father's tone, Su Zhongkan and Su Yunfang relaxed, ah, things are almost there...

"A few years ago, I was actually thinking about these things. The situation of my Su family is a bit strange. Among the three rooms, there are a bunch of children. It may be successful, but the development is insufficient. Maybe it is the way my Su family teaches. No. A few years ago, the most thoughtful and potential person was a girl. A few years ago, I was also hesitant, but when I leave one day, Boyong Zhong will be able to handle things when they are in charge of the family. , there is always a good one, this child Tan'er has endured hardship, so it didn't matter at the time that she gave it a try..."

The old man paused: "However, when it comes to doing business, girls can't take advantage of it after all. If you can do it with one effort, you have to spend three points. Because of this, Tan'er was also delayed at the beginning. There are all kinds of gossip outside... Anyway, these things have always worried me a lot. If one day, Boyong retires, can a girl's family really be in charge of so many businesses? confidence……"

"Tan'er is a very high-minded child. Over the years, everyone has seen how the businesses under her control are, but she is a little young after all, especially after Boyong's incident, everyone told me. I have been thinking about the matter. At this time, can she continue to take care of these things? Boyong retires, can she still have this ability, prestige, and can she give everyone this confidence. Today... I To take this idea..."

The old man closed his eyes, and the people inside and outside the council hall were all waiting.When he opened his eyes, he glanced at the back: "Tan'er, prepare yourself..." Su Tan'er nodded, leaned over and took out a small box from the wheelchair behind her father, got up and started walk out.The old man turned around and walked back to his seat, his crutches on the ground.

"From today onwards, everything that was originally managed under Boyong's hands, the business and accounts of the states." He said, "Everything will be handed over to his eldest daughter, Su Tan'er."

Su Yunfang stood up, Su Zhongkan hesitated for a moment, and then stood up as well, there was a commotion around, Su Yunsong's eyes widened in the seat, Su Chonghua was stunned in the second room, but something started to come up from the bottom of his heart , some images are repeated there, little girl, rice paper, words.

"Uncle Shanchang, that's mine."

"Sir, he exchanged with Xiao Qi."

Bamboo stick mango shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid!
It is expected that the spring breeze blows and wakes up, it is slightly cold, but the hills are slanted and greeted...

... to set the storm.

In front, Su Tan'er opened the small box on the table in front of the sect chiefs, and took out the items one by one, all of which were papers, silver notes, contracts, she bowed to everyone in front, and then returned. Turning his head, he looked at everyone here with quiet eyes. Inside and outside the council room, some people were even involuntarily shocked by the figure's eyes, so they were no longer shocked and discussed, just to see what she was going to say.

"Everything you want to see is here," she said. "This is just the first batch."

******************
"You...No, Tan'er...Have you anticipated what happened today?"

The courtyard was still somewhat quiet, and the voices inside and outside the council hall could be heard far away. In the pavilion, Ning Yi finished eating peanuts and was a little bored. Sudan Hong was in some kind of doubt and complicated emotions. During the whole process, Ning Yi Some of the things I said to her were a bit strange, as if I had anticipated the current situation, and even made arrangements. There seems to be some turning point in today's affairs.But Ning Yi didn't seem to be willing to speak clearly, so she had to run around, occasionally to see the quarrel in the council hall, and when she got anxious, she couldn't help but come back.

"I'm always so restless, it's because subconsciously you don't believe the evidence that Tan'er can turn things around, because she's a woman. Those shopkeepers, such as Uncle Tingguang and the others, actually think the same way, and there may not be any malicious intent, but... "

"Tan'er is her daughter's family, and everyone else sees it this way. I care about her, so I naturally think so..."

"But there's no way, you have to make them stop thinking like this, this is unreasonable, even if she is a woman, if she is in charge of this situation, you must let people give up that kind of thinking, and make people feel that even if she is a woman, she has a unique ability. The ability not to lose to men. If people can't forget that she is a woman, they have to remember something deeper... Listen, there's no voice over there."

Then, the uproar came again.

"This time they will definitely remember it very deeply." Ning Yi laughed.

"What, what's going on..."

"More than... 47 taels of silver bills, more than 20 land deeds, real estate, store transfer contracts, and business contracts. There are about five kinds of fabric recipes. I don't know the rest, but... these things are temporary. You can shut everyone's mouths..."

Ning Yi swept away the peanut shells from his body and stood up: "Let's go, let's go over and watch the comeback."

"You, you, what are you talking about, what... the title deed with the bank note... Hey..."

******************
"This is impossible!"

Su Zhongkan shook his head and checked the banknotes and the deeds on the table. As for the weaving recipe, Su Tan'er put it into his sleeve and did not show it to anyone: "Where else can you come from? Bring these, no, this piece of land is... how could it be this piece?"

"Grandpa." Tan'er said to the front, Su Yu took back the sheets of paper that he had taken out at first, and handed them to her, Su Tan'er put the manuscript papers on the table: "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, And let's see for yourself, this one...is a contract signed by Wu Chenghou, everything is on it, and in the end, it's more than just the table."

Su Zhongkan and others were flipping through there.Above, Uncle Seven frowned and asked, "Wu Jiamingming... How could he possibly give these to you?"

"In this way, how much more can his Wu family have!" someone said in the crowd.

"There can be no such thing..."

"But the cloth of his Wu family has faded."

"His Wu family is clearly... ah..."

Everyone was stunned, Su Yunfang looked up at the niece in front of him: "What did you say?"

Su Tan'er laughed: "The cloth of his Wu family has faded. If he doesn't come to beg me, what else can I do?"

"The cloth of the Wu family..." Su Yunfang thought for a while, his eyes turned, "The cloth of the royal merchants? Faded?"

"Ah."

It was quiet, and when everyone was thinking about this sudden arrival, they looked at the woman in front of her who seemed to be smiling innocently—she was only 19 years old after all, and her smile was sincere and interesting at this time.

"So, more than four months ago, you already..."

"The Wu family stole a fake formula?"

"The recipe is really with you?"

"In the past few months, have you been pretending? Are you waiting for the yellow cloth to fade?"

There was an uproar, Su Tan'er laughed noncommittally, and in a moment, everyone inside and outside the council room could already outline the entire outline.Above, Su Yu sighed.

"Now, you don't have to question the outcome of the imperial business... Four months ago, when Boyong was assassinated and Tan'er fell ill, the big room decided on this idea and took the risk. I knew at the time... ."

"This matter needs to be kept strictly confidential. To be successful, it is not easy. Many people have already contributed, but everyone is kept in the dark... I also know that everyone's concern for my Su family is all out of sincerity. In fact, if not The situation in my Su family is at this point, and this matter should have been revealed after everything was implemented..."

Su Yu stood up and told everyone about the process of the past four months, and then talked about the difficulty of this matter to succeed, the fineness of the layout, the mastery and manipulation of people's hearts: "...After this matter, I finally You know, the two ghosts from my Su family, one is Qi Guangzu! The other is Han Qi, who is currently managing the warehouse on Shengxing Street! Now that he has been taken care of, he will be sent to the officials for investigation tomorrow!"

In fact, all the people were still lost in this reversal. When the old man suddenly shouted the names of the two inner ghosts, some people woke up and looked at Su Taner over there. What happened this time is not only about The Wu family was put together like this, the second and third rooms in the family were all defeated, and the inner ghost in the family was even found at one time.

On the side, Su Tingguang and others who had stood up after being persuaded by Su Zhongkan and Su Yunfang before, were still panicking at this time, and their eyes were erratic without a destination.

"This matter, how difficult it is to operate and how much profit is made, everyone can see clearly. Outside, the Xue family, Lu family, Chen family, etc., who have been staring at my Su family, have been completely unsuccessful. The success of this matter is inseparable. Let everyone in my Su family work together." This is a cliché.

"Tan'er's control and manipulation of the overall situation." This is naturally true.

"And the most important thing is..." The old man paused, "Liheng's, strategize."

The name finally came out, Su Zhongkan raised his head and looked at his father, thinking he was wrong about the flower, Su Yunfang, Su Yunsong and others had their eyes widened, Su Chonghua leaned on the back of the chair.At the table, Su Tan'er, who was originally smiling, was also stunned. The expression froze on her face. The woman turned her head and looked at her grandfather behind with a bit of astonishment. Su Yu looked at her with a smile. There is no change.

"Tan'er, you have a good husband. Brother Zi'an...has a good grandson."

grandfather……

********************
Sultan Hong and Ning Yi bypassed the path, and when they approached the small square, they finally felt a certain atmosphere.

Ning Yi didn't walk very fast. As he walked, he looked at the group of people. Most of the people gathered at the door of the conference hall had the kind of expression on their faces. They were talking and couldn't hear clearly, but they could probably guess to what it looks like.Had to be more, at this time, it looked really interesting.

Just as he began to approach, the uproar began to expand, and some people began to turn their heads and look towards him. Some people were talking and pointing, including Su Wengui and others, who were astonished when they saw a ghost. Looking at him with expressions, more and more people looked over, all of them were relatives of the Su family, but they were sure to look at him, not at Sultan Hong next to him.

He stopped, his eyes rolled, and he pursed his lips.

These onlookers' expressions are not what he likes to see very much, because they feel a little too much.

Sultan Hong looked at everyone and turned to look at him: "What, what's wrong."

"It looks like I shouldn't be walking with you, it's not good..." Ning Yi shook his head, turned around and walked towards a secluded corner as smoothly as possible.

Alas, hide for now.

Only Sultan Hong stood there, looking at himself and others in confusion...
