Republic of China small businessman

Jiuye found a temporary residence in Xichuan, which was near the business.

He drank too much wine during the day, took a nap in the afternoon, and woke up near the evening.

Xie Jing snuggled up to him, probably because she was a little tired in the past two days, and slept deeper than him, and she hasn't woken up yet.

Master Jiu put his fingers on his cheeks, stroked them down to the bridge of his nose, and brushed his loose hair, which was much longer than when he left Shanghai.Obviously, I have been by my side these days, but I can't get enough of it. I can't take my eyes off the other party, and even the eyes become gentle.

Xie Jing is afraid of the heat. When I was in the North, as long as there was a little earth dragon in winter, I wish I could just cover it with a thin blanket at night.

Now in Xichuan, it is no different from before, hands and feet are exposed.

It was a cool autumn day, Master Jiu put on a coat, but his little steward Xie slept so much that his cuffs were rolled up, exposing his arms outside, his fingers unconsciously grabbed a little of his collar, and clenched it tightly.

Master Jiu looked at it for a while, originally he just wanted to take a closer look, but couldn't hold back a kiss.

From the forehead to the tip of the nose, and then on the lips, one after another, can't stop.

Xie Jing hid in his arms, still wanting to sleep.

Master Jiu chuckled, pinched his earlobe and rubbed his fingers to comfort him.

After a while, Xie Jing hid deeper, her exposed skin was reddish as if she had drunk wine.

……

Xie Jing was ill a few days ago, although he ate it once, it was only a taste.

Master Jiu didn't expect that Xiao Xie would be so active today, and he didn't know whether to be surprised or admired for a while.

In the past, it was Master Jiu who took the lead, and it was more like probing. His Jing'er was too shy and never asked for anything, only begging for mercy when he was bullied severely.

After today's encounter, Master Jiu understood a truth.

It turned out that what was said on the bed had to be reversed.

Xie Jing was sweating profusely against Master Jiu's body, his chest was still heaving violently at this moment, his body was obviously sticky, but he didn't bother to move a single finger, he really didn't have the strength to get up and wash, the last bit of strength was drained.

Master Jiu moved his hands around, stroking his back, and finally landed on his waist and clasped it slowly.

He lifted it up.

Xie Jing immediately snorted, stretched out her hand to push him, her fingertips were trembling: "No."

Jiuye knew the taste by eating the marrow, and kissed him: "One last time."

Xie Jing's eyes were red, and she shook her head to hide, this time she really couldn't care less about anything, "No, I, I want to..."

"Whatever Jing'er wants, I'll give it to you."

Xie Jing bit her finger and cried wildly.

He remembers things early, and he has been able to take care of himself since he was three years old, and he has never troubled the adults in his family.

But today the whole shame was shattered.

Normally, no matter how tired he was, he would definitely tidy it up, but today he was only willing to wrap himself in a clean thin quilt, and he didn't even dare to poke his head out. When Master Jiu called him, he didn't even answer.

Master Jiu made up the bed, fetched water to wipe him clean, and coaxed him softly for a long time.

Xie Jing only showed a pair of eyes, and the eyelashes were glued together by tears. They looked like puppies who had been wronged, and said in a nasal voice: "I just said, I'm going to come out, and I don't care about it." listen."

Jiu Ye hugged Ren Lian Bo in his arms, kissed him several times, and coaxed him softly: "It's not that I didn't listen, but I really couldn't stop at that moment, and I won't be like this next time, I will be with you ensure."

Xie Jing shrank back a little under the quilt.

Master Jiu said: "I'm going to Meishan in two days, I have some family matters, maybe I need to trouble Cao Yunzhao."

Xie Jing leaned out a little, and asked vaguely, "What's the matter?"

Master Jiu coughed and said, "Business matters are not big problems, I can handle them well."

Xie Jing said: "Do you want me to go there together?"

Master Jiu chuckled lightly and teased him: "Aren't you angry now?"

Xie Jing: "I'm still a little angry."

After a while, he said in a low voice but seriously: "Just a little."

Master Jiu was so coaxed by his voice that his whole heart melted, and when he was on the verge of refusing, he changed his words and kissed the tip of Xie Jing's nose: "Then come with me, I will apologize to you on the way, okay?" good?"

It will take a few days to load the salt cargo from Xichuan, and it will only be transported from Zhuandou Township. Xie Jing does not need to guard it. When I came back, it was already arranged.

Master Jiu lived in Xichuan for a few days, and then set off for Meishan with Cao Yunzhao.

On the day of the trip, Xu Jun came to see him off. Xie Jing searched in the crowd, but he didn't see his uncle or He Dongting.

Xu Jun said: "Your uncle suffered from the cold the day before yesterday. He is not in good health yet. He is recuperating, so he won't come to see you off. He asked me to give you these." Xu Jun took a few bank notes from his arms and handed them to Xie Jing, " Go out, don't wrong yourself."

Xie Jing took it, and after thanking him, he asked, "Where's my father?" Xu Jun shook his head: "In the past two days...he had a little conflict with your uncle, and said he wanted to stay quietly in the old house for two days and think about something."

The old house is the place where Xie's siblings lived in the earliest days. Now it is surrounded by bamboo forests. Although it is a bit old, it is as clean and tidy as it was when Xie Yuan was still there.

Xie Jing didn't find it strange that He Dongting would go there.

The suppression of the bandits in Yunmeng Mountain was over, Luo Nianqiu led a group of people waiting at the entrance of Yunmeng Canyon, escorted them out of Xichuan, and went straight to Meishan.

It is not too far to meet Meishan and Xichuan, if you march quickly, you can get there in one day.

This time, I didn't meet any bandits along the way, so it went smoothly.

After sending off Cao Yunzhao and his party, Luo Nianqiu did not enter the city, but only stationed outside the city for a day, and left the camp the next day.

Cao Yunzhao went to take office with a letter of appointment. There are many rules and cumbersome officialdom, no matter when it is like this, Cao Yunzhao stayed to solve the mess left by his predecessor, and he couldn't do other things for the time being, but first, he found someone for Bai Jiu. A house—he has received the money for building the school, and his attitude towards the God of Wealth is still extremely hospitable. The yard he found is big enough, it is located on the mountainside, and the surrounding environment is quiet and beautiful. I wish Bai Jiu could stay here with him Develop and build together.

Xie Jing went to see it with Master Jiu, and felt that the environment was good, and the cost of purchasing the house was less than Xie Jing thought. The house and the back mountain were only bought for one thousand oceans, which was only the price of a small courtyard house in the capital.

Accompanying him was Cao Yunzhao's secretary, who followed Mr. Cao's son all the way from Beiping City to the south. The secretary smiled and said, "Master Jiu, what do you think? This is already the best Fengshui place in Meishan. Don't worry." Not to mention, the place is spacious, and you can build whatever you want. If you see something that doesn’t suit you, just tell me, you’re welcome.”

Master Jiu nodded and said, "Thank you."

Bai Mingyu turned around, but he was quite satisfied. He was used to large courtyards in the Northland. Although the foreign-style houses in Shanghai were beautiful, they were still too narrow. Now when he saw this courtyard, he felt that it was more spacious.

Xie Jing also turned around inside, and finally stood in the main hall, looking at the front without knowing what she was thinking, her ears gradually turned red.

Bai Mingyu also came over, he followed Xie Jing's line of sight, and asked suspiciously, "Xiao Xie, what are you looking at? It's empty and there's nothing there, so there's nothing to see."

Xie Jing returned to her senses, and said seriously: "It's nothing, I just want to put some chairs here."

Bai Mingyu: "Aren't you stupid? This is the main hall, where guests are entertained. Of course, it's the same as when we were in Beidi. There are two rows on each side, and at the front are two grand master chairs..." He gestured and told Xie Jing listened.

Standing there, Xie Jing suddenly smiled. When Bai Mingyu heard this, he turned around and looked at him suspiciously.

Xie Jing restrained her smile, coughed and said, "You're right."

Bai Mingyu had been tricked by him many times before, "Second Young Master is right" almost cast a shadow on his mind. After looking at Xie Jing for a while, he suddenly frowned and asked, "Did you understand?"

Xie Jing pretended to be stupid: "Know what?"

Bai Mingyu saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and knew for a moment that he was wrong, so he immediately changed the subject and tried to fool him: "Ah, it's nothing, it's just about me and my aunt. When you left the Shanghai stock market, didn't you Say, do you want to behave well and give more gifts? I listened to you and wrote a lot of letters."

Xie Jing glanced at him.

Bai Mingyu's heart skipped a beat, and he said bravely, "I still have people bring things to her every now and then..."

Xie Jing corrected him: "What do you mean by listening to me, you can send it if you want, and write a letter if you want to write."

Bai Mingyu's face flushed, and he said a little embarrassedly: "Anyway, anyway, I'm going to finish this matter, and I'll make the first contribution to you!"

Xie Jing: "It's not necessary."

Xie Jing was satisfied after seeing the hall, and wanted to turn around and go to the courtyard to find Master Jiu, but Bai Mingyu couldn't bear it, so he stopped him: "Hey, Xiao Xie!"

Xie Jing turned around: "What's wrong?"

Bai Mingyu stammered and said: "I'm afraid you're worried, so I'd better tell you in advance, Jiuye brought you to Meishan this time, firstly because he wanted to stay with you for a few more days, and secondly because he wanted to avoid your father He Dongting."

Xie Jing was puzzled: "Why?"

Bai Mingyu: "Do you still remember Huaxing Textile Bureau in the eastern suburbs of Shanghai?"

Xie Jing nodded. That place is actually two textile factories. The rare thing is that the factories are connected together, occupying a piece of land with a good location, and it is also close to the pier. That piece of land and housing prices will skyrocket in the next two years, so it is a good place. .

Bai Mingyu glanced at the yard, and said in a low voice: "Back then, Boss He wanted to sell it to our master for 40 silver dollars, but later Master Jiu refused, saying that it was rent, [-] silver dollars a year."

"I know about it."

"You don't know, Master Jiu spent three months suppressing Huaxing's stock, and bought it at the bottom. In addition, Huaxing was losing money for years due to poor management. It went bankrupt and auctioned, and was bought by Master Jiu for 30 yuan." Bai Ming Yu leaned closer, almost lying next to Xie Jing's ear, and whispered: "These 30 yuan is actually for outsiders to hear. I have handled this matter, and the actual payment to other shareholders is only [-] yuan... Do you remember this is Whose factory is it?"

Xie Jing raised her eyebrows, if he remembered correctly, this was He Dongting's.

"The name has been changed to Hengfeng Spinning Factory now." Bai Mingyu reached out and patted Xie Jing on the shoulder, and sighed, "I only told you that I treated you as a brother. You, make preparations in advance."

Bai Er looked at Xie Jing now, with sympathy in his eyes.

He has seen a lot of family conflicts. Whether it is mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, son-in-law and father-in-law, the people in the middle are the most difficult to deal with. Xiao Xie is too miserable.Master Jiu was staking the land in the Shanghai stock market. The small factory didn't let him go, and the big factory didn't let him go. He even robbed Xiaoxie's father's business. Xiaoxie stood in the middle, with fleshy palms and backs.

Bai Mingyu felt a headache for him.

Xie Jing waited for a moment, then asked, "Is that all?"

Bai Mingyu was stunned: "Isn't this enough?"

Xie Jing thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, I'm thinking about it."

Bai Mingyu asked, "How do you plan to deal with the textile factory?"

Xie Jing said: "It's okay, a family, we have to get used to it, after all, it will be a long time in the future."

Bai Mingyu never expected that Xie Jing would just let it go.He had been worried since he was in Shanghai on the way to Xichuan. He was worried when he got on the boat, and he was the same when he got off the boat. He was afraid that Lord Jiu and Boss He would fight.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

About Bai Er's worries——

He Dongting: It's not about this, alas.

Xie Siquan: It's not such a crap! !

Jiuye: No.

Xiao Xie (glances at Master Jiu): I don't know, let's talk about it in a few days, and I don't really care.

……

Bai Er: What?
