Chapter 283
Although he didn't fully believe in the Wei family at that time, he only thought that having a Yue family like the Wei family would be a help for him in the future.

Unexpectedly, Wei Mingshan is not only hideously ugly now, but also has a violent temper like a mad dog. Hu Shiming immediately yelled that he wanted to divorce the engagement in a rage.

Qi Jingyu happened to pass by, how could he get what he wanted after hearing this?
When Wei Mingshan kicked Hu Shiming again, a gust of wind hit her toes and hit Hu Shiming's legs fiercely.

"what!"

Hu Shiming screamed and fell to the ground immediately.

Wei Mingshan only thought that he was pretending, and kicked again like crazy, but she was not stable, and she fell down at once, her whole body was pressed on Hu Shiming's body, and the two happened to be facing each other.

"what!"

Hu Shiming wailed in pain again, Wei Mingshan opened her mouth and bit his face.

The servants of the two families quickly helped to separate the two. When Wei Mingshan got up, his mouth was covered with blood, which looked particularly bloody, and he took advantage of the situation to kick Hu Shiming again, so that he could not die, just right on his injured leg.

Hu Shiming couldn't bear it anymore, and passed out from the pain.

And on his face, the circle of imprints bitten by Wei Mingshan was still dripping with blood.

Seeing this, Qi Jingyu sneered and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Hu Shiming's leg bones are broken, even if he is cured, he will be crippled.

Unless there is a doctor who also understands Beibei's treatment method, the possibility of this is obviously extremely low.

Now a lame man and a disfigured man, they are well-matched, and they are a perfect match, which shows that this marriage is settled.

Qi Jingyu raised a mocking smile, and hurried towards Jinxiufang.

When he arrived at Jinxiufang, shopkeeper Jin was about to close.

"Hey, why did Qi Baichang come here so late?"

"It's a little late for the next duty. I don't know if Shopkeeper Jin has time. I have something to discuss with you."

"That's really a coincidence. To tell you the truth, I was planning to close the door and go back to my hometown to say goodbye to my parents. I have to leave for the county early in the morning. If you are one step later, we will miss it."

The treasurer Jin said, and politely invited Qi Jingyu to enter the inner courtyard of the embroidery workshop.

A cup of hot tea was served, and the treasurer Jin went straight to the point.

"I don't know what Qi Baichang wants to talk about? But there is a new trick?"

Treasurer Jin asked enthusiastically.

The last time he presented a new trick, he won a lot of rewards from the master.

"I heard that the master of Jinxiufang is a nobleman from Kyoto?"

Qi Jingyu's answer was irrelevant, and the shopkeeper Jin narrowed his small eyes and asked tentatively, "I don't know why Qi Baichang asked this question?"

"Treasurer Jin, don't be nervous. Qi just wants to talk to Treasurer Jin about a business that is sure to make a profit, but he doesn't know if Jinxiufang can handle it."

Qi Jingyu said lightly.

"Oh? I don't know what kind of business it is, but Qi Baichang is so cautious?"

The treasurer Jin asked with a smile.

"ice."

"ice?"

Suddenly, shopkeeper Jin repeated excitedly: "Is there ice in Qi Baichang's hands?"

Qi Jingyu was slightly surprised. Although ice is a rare commodity at the border, for shopkeeper Jin, even if he has not enjoyed it himself, he should have seen it at the master's house. It is reasonable to not be so excited.

Shopkeeper Jin also realized his gaffe, and apologized: "Qi Baichang forgive me, to tell you the truth, right now the master is asking people to look for ice everywhere, if Qi Baichang really has ice in his hands, Jinxiufang will definitely not treat you badly. .”

"Treasurer Jin also knows that I am working under General Wei, so it stands to reason that this ice should be dedicated to Wei's family directly, but..."

Shopkeeper Jin is a fine person, and Qi Jingyu's unfinished words were instantly understood, and he immediately expressed his attitude with a smile: "They are all doing things for others, and I understand Qi Baichang's concerns.

Bing is a rare commodity in our area, and the money touches people's hearts. Although it is not the master's family, it is also a top peak. It is reasonable for Qi Baichang to have concerns about the Weifu.

However, Baichang Qi was right to find us in Jinxiufang.

The real owner of our Jinxiufang is a nobleman in the capital, even the Jingdu Wei family can do nothing about it, you can rest assured on this point.

Moreover, I can promise Qi Baichang, except for the master of Jinxiufang, I will not tell anyone that the ice comes from you, how about it? "

"What the treasurer Jin said is exactly what I think."

Qi Jingyu nodded, and then asked casually: "You just said that the master's family is looking for ice?"

"No, to be honest, there are nobles from Kyoto visiting the county town."

Shopkeeper Jin said frankly.

The nobleman did not conceal his identity to travel, and sooner or later this matter will reach Qing County, so there is nothing to say.

"The current weather is okay if we are used to it, but the nobles in Kyoto can't stand it. It happened that there was no snowfall last winter, and even the county guard's mansion didn't have much ice in it, so if Baichang Qi had ice in his hand, This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Shopkeeper Jin looked at Qi Jingyu with narrowed eyes and a smile, obviously probing.

"It is indeed a good opportunity to make a fortune!"

Qi Jingyu smiled calmly and said, "I don't know how to collect the ice from shopkeeper Jin?"

Seeing that he didn't intend to inquire about the nobleman's affairs at all, shopkeeper Jin smiled more sincerely.

"Then I don't know how much ice Qi Baichang has stored?"

Qi Jingyu shook his head, "It's not that I store ice, it's just that I found a self-contained ice cellar."

"Oh? To tell you the truth, I was just wondering where you got the ice!"

Shopkeeper Jin laughed, and then asked enthusiastically, "I wonder how big the ice cellar is?"

Qi Jingyu glanced at the room behind him, thought for a while and said, "There are about half a room."

"Great! Qi Baichang, you see, this is feasible. I will give you two taels of silver for a one-foot-square ice cube!"

Qi Jingyu just smiled and said nothing.

Treasurer Jin gritted his teeth, "Three taels! No more, this is a sincere price.

To tell you the truth, the owner’s price for finding ice has reached five taels of silver, but that’s because the people who store ice in the county are either rich or expensive, and they are not short of that little silver.

In fact, those who have ice in their hands are eager to show their faces in front of the nobles, and they are willing to give it away for free, and no one will really sell it.

Besides, from our Qing County to the county town, it will take a day and a night to go fast. The ice thing will melt into water when it is hot. When I transport it to the county town, it will be pretty good if I can save more than half of it. "

"Okay, then three or two."

Qi Jingyu made a final decision, and the shopkeeper Jin said with joy: "Then I wonder if I can deliver the ice tomorrow morning? I just want to rush to the county town, so I will take a car there first."

Qi Jingyu thought for a while, then frowned and said, "It's too early in the morning, so why don't you drive the car to the crossroads in Xiaohe Village to pick up the ice. Besides, I can't carry a whole carload of ice at a time, ten to 15 yuan at most."

"It's because I didn't think carefully. I don't know where the ice cellar is?"

Seeing Qi Jingyu's sharp gaze sweeping towards him, Shopkeeper Jin's expression was startled, and he said calmly, "It's not that I intend to inquire, but I just want to see if I can send someone nearby to respond."

"Are you sure that your people have the guts to go deep into the jungle?"

Upon hearing the words 'deep in the dense forest', shopkeeper Jin trembled, "Then... we can only trouble Qi Baichang."

"It's not troublesome, it's just a business."
