Chapter 520 Grabbing Business (1)

The next day, Su Kefang got the blueprints and took Su Mu and Su Ye with him and went out, ready to go to the department store to arrange decorations by artisans. As soon as the three of them rode their horses to the street, they saw men in twos and threes running towards the east of the city.

"Su Mu, go and see what's going on?" Su Kefang said.

Su Mu stopped the two men and asked a few words, then came back and reported to Su Kefang: "Ma'am, the east side of the city is recruiting soldiers. I heard that nearly half of the men in Shengjing City have signed up for the front line."

Su Kefang was startled: "Recruiting soldiers?"

"Yes, our army suffered a lot of casualties in the few battles before the young master went to the border. When the young master led troops to attack Tongcheng, tens of thousands of people died. Now the imperial court is recruiting a large number of soldiers across the country." Su Mu relayed the information he found to Su Kefang.

Su Kefang looked thoughtfully towards the east of the city, and couldn't help thinking about what happened after she and her mother-in-law were assassinated on New Year's Eve.

She figured it out and understood the embarrassing thing about Tianweiguo's assassin sneaking into Shengjing. Why didn't Ouyang Rui stop the spread of the news? That cunning guy Ouyang Rui probably wanted to recruit troops a long time ago, right?

And the storyteller in the teahouse must also be a member of the imperial court, right?

Not only Shengjing, but all over the country have arranged such storytellers, right?
First arouse the people's hatred of the Tianwei people, and then recruit soldiers, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!
Suddenly, Su Kefang's almond eyes glared, and suddenly he figured out what?
That day when Zhu Jin'an sent Zhu Huaguang to the Duke Huguo's mansion to plead guilty, people gathered outside the Duke Huguo's mansion in a blink of an eye. Is this probably Ouyang Rui's intention?

In addition, the support of the Xiang family from the people of Shengjing City, besides Zhu Jin'an's contribution to the flames, Ouyang Rui's handwriting was also indispensable behind it. Fortunately, she and her mother-in-law were still worried there, and tried to extradite the blame to the Zhu family.

Thinking of this, Su Kefang couldn't help rubbing his forehead in annoyance, why is she so stupid?
Also, since he unintentionally ruined Ouyang Rui's event, he wouldn't bear a grudge against him, would he?
No matter, Ouyang Rui is willing to recruit troops, which is a good thing for Zirun, even if Ouyang Rui wants to hate her, she will admit it.

Su Kefang went to the department store to arrange work for the craftsmen, then went home, and told the Yao family about the recruiting by the imperial court.

When Xiang Chenxiang heard that the imperial court recruited soldiers, he was a little ready to move. Yao Shi saw through his thoughts at a glance, and his face sank: "Xiang'er, you should give me up on the idea of ​​entering the barracks earlier!"

She has stayed at home for most of her life, but what she waited for was to kill her family. Now that her eldest son was forced to go to the front line again, she didn't want to lose her younger son too!

Xiang Chenxiang has never disobeyed his mother, and it is the same this time.

Xiang Chenxiang knew that although he couldn't help much at home, but the family was old and young, so he couldn't really just leave.

What Su Kefang wanted to do didn't stop because of the court's conscription. Apart from the department store, Su Kefang also took over the shop of Yin Yang Division and refurbished it.

A few days later, Miao learned that a rouge shop had reopened opposite Zhu’s rouge shop. The rouge they sold was better than theirs, but the price was not as expensive. , and took away more than half of Zhu's guests.

Hearing the news, Miao was furious: "Isn't this intentional to steal our business? Have you found out who the boss is?"

"Mother, I checked, but I haven't found it yet." Zhu Huaguang's daughter-in-law, Hu Shi, said.

"Check it out for me right away!" Miao gritted her teeth.

This rouge shop was the dowry shop when she got married. Over the years, because of her daughter's relationship, the business of this rouge shop has become more and more prosperous. Back then, Ouyang Lin colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, and their Zhu family was also implicated, and many properties of the Zhu family were confiscated. , except for the house, only her dowry is left. Now half of Zhu's expenses are drawn from this rouge shop. If the rouge shop collapses, their Zhu family will have a hard time.

"Mother, don't worry, we are investigating." Hu comforted.

When Zhu Jin'an returned to the mansion, seeing Miao's angry look, his face darkened: "Is that bastard mad at you again?"

These days, Zhu Huaguang made a lot of trouble to bring Qiao Yiyue from the other courtyard back to Zhu's mansion, so when he saw Miao's complexion, Zhu Jin'an subconsciously thought of that rebellious son.

"No!" Mrs. Miao told Zhu Huaguang about the rouge shop, and then said: "Master, you also know the situation in our mansion, so please help me find a way."

Zhu Jin'an paused for a moment, and glanced at Mrs. Hu, who understood and found an excuse to retreat.

After Mrs. Hu left, Zhu Jin'an asked, "Isn't the jewelry shop across the street doing very well? How did it become a rouge shop in just a few days?"

Zhu Jin'an also knew in his heart what this rouge shop meant to their Zhu family, so he didn't want to say this in front of his daughter-in-law, because it was too embarrassing for him to be supported by his wife's dowry as the head of the Zhu family. People are embarrassed.

"I just spoke to you because I didn't know what was going on. Otherwise, how could I find you for such a thing?" Miao frowned.

Zhu Jin'an pondered for a moment, then said: "Don't worry, I'll have someone check it out, and if I can't find it, I'll ask my daughter for help."

"That's the only way to go." Miao couldn't help sighing when she thought of what her daughter told her when she came back to the house two days ago.

Don't think that the daughter is the Zhengfei of the King of Qin, but that is only superficial. When Ouyang Lin was not defeated before, her daughter was one-sided in the palace. He was even reprimanded by King Qin because of his son's affairs.

If possible, the Miao family doesn't want to make trouble for her daughter.

Su Kefang, who was playing with two children in the hall of the Duke's Mansion, saw Xiang Bingyu walk into the hall, winked at her and said, "Sister, didn't you say that the rouge was almost used up a few days ago? I'll take you to buy rouge." !"

Xiang Bingyu glanced at her: "You don't use rouge, how can you know which shop's rouge is good?"

Su Kefang put on a show and said, "Sister, you'll know when you come with me."

Su Kefang hadn't taken the children out for a long time, seeing that the weather was getting warmer today, he took the two children out together.

The Zhu family's rouge shop is called "Furong Pavilion", and the newly opened rouge shop opposite them is called "Xue Ning Pavilion". He Dongmei stepped forward to take Wenwen and Xiao Yueze, and a group of people entered the shop in a mighty manner.

As soon as Su Kefang and others appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of some people, but Su Kefang and Xiang Bingyu didn't take it seriously.

The shopkeeper lady of "Xuening Pavilion" immediately came forward respectfully when she saw Su Kefang, Su Kefang winked at her, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, first apply a mask for us, and then choose some The rouge that suits my sister's skin."
