Chapter 429

It can be said that without Su Cao, Su Hai, let alone stand up and walk again, would be completely paralyzed on the couch and unable to walk in Lin County if he didn't give up his life.

Now that she appeared, Su Zhongxian scolded her.

Su Hai said to him: "What's the matter with you? It's rare for Cao'er to come back, and you still curse."

"How dare I?"

Su Zhongxian said angrily: "The stinky girl is enjoying herself in Mingzhu Town, she almost forgot about me!"

"Okay, okay, isn't it because I'm afraid that I will forget you as a father? Don't worry, I won't forget!"

Su Cao picked up the basket of snacks in her hand: "Old Su, I don't make money in Mingzhu Town. Can our big green brick house be built? Don't stand and talk without back pain! There is also this basket of snacks, which was almost given to Uncle Miao. I snatched it away, and I said I would honor my father, so I was not willing to give him any."

"So dad, you don't care about this snack."

Su Cao stuffed the food basket to Xiaosongzi who ran over: "I'll give you all, my father doesn't like to eat."

"Who said I don't like to eat? Who said?"

Su Zhongxian was so anxious that he wanted to chase Xiaosongzi who was going into the house: "Little bastard, it's my daughter's filial piety to me. You can keep some for me."

Su Hai: "..."

Who is the little bastard scolding?
In the back hall of Changqing Temple, Daoist Xiaoyao ran out desperately with a wooden frame in his arms, and Qing Jiu chased after him.

At this time, Ji Mo walked in from the outside leading the young master.

"what happened?"

"My lord, have you returned from Mingzhu Town?"

Daoist Xiaoyao complained with a dark face: "Look at their stinginess! The old Taoist just asked them for some sawdust to burn incense. They lived and ate for free in Changqing Temple, and didn't ask them for the room fee, did they?"

"You're hugging all sawdust? What's hiding under the sawdust?"

Qing Jiu reported: "The last time I found agarwood in the mountains with great difficulty, except for the ones that were made into cubes and sent to Mingzhu Town by Ye Qi to the master, he came here, and the rest were all gone. Those are high-quality medicinal materials. "

Ji Mo waved at Taoist Priest Xiaoyao, meaning to give him something.

Only then did Xiaoyao Old Daoist look at Qing Jiu proudly, and left with the wooden box in his arms.

"By the way, the things the master ordered are ready, and this subordinate is about to send a message to the boatman in the village to Mingzhu Town, and the master has rushed back."

Qing Jiu reported: "Also, there is a letter from Yulong County!"

Qing Jiu followed Ji Mo and the young master into the hall, and then took out the letter from Changqing Guan sent by Ji Patriarch Fei Ge.

"Ji's newly opened jade workshop was suppressed, and the raw materials were cut off."

Ji Mo had already guessed that something went wrong with the raw materials of the Ji family's jade wares, and who wrote them. However, the Ji family's sudden intervention in the jade business would definitely attract attention. Buying raw materials from merchants in the west was a pretense.

The Ji family relies on the mineral veins stretching deep in the mountains of Mingzhu Lake. Since the cooperation between him and the Ji family master, he has been secretly mining jade mines.

Qing Jiu was a little worried: "Master, without the pretense of merchants in the west, sooner or later the source of the Ji family's goods will be exposed. No matter how tightly we cover up, the frequent ships coming and going to such a small place as Xinghua Village will also arouse suspicion."

"It won't be any time soon!"

Ji Mo threw out a big news: "The latest location of Nanshan Academy will be near Changqing Temple."

what?
Nanshan Academy was built near Changqing Temple?
A well-known academy in Yulong County, built in such a remote place?
Qing Jiu couldn't believe it.

But he knew that if this was the case, the building of the academy required transporting materials and hiring people to work, all of which could be covered up by the jade mining.

As long as you seize the opportunity, dig the best material mountain, and wait for all parties to hear about it, then the opponent will be one step too late.
