Domineering Peasant Girl is Not Easy To Mess With

   Chapter 731 Opportunity

   Now that he is back, he naturally has to sort out everything.

   For example, the news that should be known and the specific situation of the current situation, such as the current power of the other party, such as how many of his people are still available, and what changes should be made now...

   Not to mention anything else, just contacting the old department is enough for him to be busy.

   It's okay to talk about fighting, but Mu Qingli can't help him with these things.

   The manor where she lives is in the northern suburbs of the capital.

   It is not too convenient to enter and leave Beijing. Fu Bo, the steward of the manor, got the master's order and called Mu Qingli directly to the crown prince, which was extremely respectful.

   She is going to Beijing to play, and the carriage and the like have already been prepared.

On the other hand, Mu Qingli felt a little strange when she heard the title of "Prince Concubine", and felt a little overwhelmed by Uncle Fu's enthusiasm. After entering the capital in a carriage, she ordered the driver to find a place to rest near the city gate. Go, she walks around the city by herself, more comfortable.

   However, thinking that this is all Zhou Yunshen's feelings for him, I can't help but feel a little sweet in my heart.

  It is unavoidable to be in a family position for this kind of thing in modern times, not to mention the ancient times when it paid special attention to status.

   Even if Zhou Yunshen is at a disadvantage now, he is still the crown prince under one person and above ten thousand people. In comparison, what is she Mu Qingli? It is said that the good people all praised her.

  According to common sense, even if Uncle Fu did not dare to do anything in front of Zhou Yunshen, when Zhou Yunshen could not see her, Mu Qingli would never have a good face. But Uncle Fu and all the servants in the manor saw her, and all of them called "Prince Concubine" respectfully, without the slightest contempt, which was rare.

  Although Mu Qingli was very curious about how the Crown Prince gave orders, but she accepted this feeling, and it could be said that she liked it quite a bit.

  Beijing is very lively, all kinds of gossip are flying all over the sky, go to different teahouses, theaters, restaurants, and listen to whatever you want.

   Of course, the most talked about right now is that the second prince Zhou Yunzhen is about to seal the crown prince.

   It can be seen that the political consciousness of the people in the capital is unusual! For the royal things, even a little guy running in a small restaurant can tell a set of things.

   Listening to the people worrying about the country and the people discussing the matter of conferring the crown prince, Mu Qingli just wanted to sneer.

  The new prince? The Queen Meng and the second prince were probably destined to be disappointed.

   That guy Zhou Yunshen's scheming and tactics are just a joke? Now that he is back, the crown prince's position is definitely his.

  Empress Meng and the second prince may not be his opponents even though they have developed their power for so many years.

   This man is lucky, and he really can't stop it.

   One day, Mu Qingli was wandering in the teahouse, drinking tea, eating snacks, and listening to miscellaneous gossip. Suddenly, a gossip caught her attention.

   Approaching a table, four young men were discussing the sale of the property of a large merchant Zhao's family, and Mu Qingli listened for a while.

  According to Mu Qingli, things are roughly like this: The Zhao family is mainly engaged in freight distribution business, similar to logistics in modern society.

After making a fortune through freight distribution, he has opened nearly 20 silk and satin shops and leather goods stores in the capital and several cities around the capital. There are also two shops in the capital that specialize in the sale of rare Western goods and boutique treasures. It is also a home. Big business.

  Mu Qingli quite admires the Zhao family. After all, in ancient times, it must have been very thoughtful to be able to do freight distribution and make it large-scale. Most people can't think of this.

  Unexpectedly, after the Zhao family developed, some people became jealous, and the Jiangnan rich Xi family wanted to join the Zhao family's freight business.

   This is the foundation of the Zhao family's foundation. They are not short of money or people. Who would be willing to let others do a good job of their own?

   Besides, although the Zhao family's business is not small now, even if it is still a big businessman in the capital, it can only barely enter the second-rate, in fact, it is equal to the third-rate.

   After all, this is the capital! There are many great merchants, but what is the foundation of the Zhao family? Getting rich is what happened in the past seven or eight years.

  The Xi family is the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is said that the Meng family is behind it—that is, Queen Meng's natal family.

   Relying on the Meng family is equivalent to relying on Queen Meng and His Highness Zhou Yunzhen.

  If the Zhao family's business really lets the Xi family join in, I'm afraid that within half a year, they will all change their surnames to Xi.

  The Zhao family declined, angering the Xi family.

   With the Second Highness and the Meng family supporting them, the Zhao family was ruthlessly calculated by the Xi family and lost a large amount of goods worth millions of silver.

One is the million-dollar goods on the canal because of an "accident" and the ship caught fire, and the other is the buyer who had signed a deposit before forcing the goods or compensation. How could the Zhao family get so many Cash?

   If in the past, by virtue of their ability, they mortgaged the bank, or borrowed from some good friends, or negotiated with the buyer to make some profit, this problem can be completely solved.

   At most, the Zhao family will pay, but they will never be forced into a desperate situation.

   However, with the Xi family operating behind the scenes, which bank would dare to take their mortgage and lend them money? Which friend would dare to lend them money? The buyers who signed the shopping contract were even more reluctant to be accommodating, and instead pressed for it step by step...

  The Zhao family, father and son, were so anxious that they wanted to vomit blood. If they didn't understand what was going on at this time, they would not be able to create the Zhao family's huge family business.

At this time, the Xi family didn't go around with them anymore. Da Lala came to the door and demanded to receive all the property of the Zhao family at an ultra-low price, to solve this trouble for them, and to give them 300,000 taels of silver to let them leave the capital.

The Zhao family, father and son, were furious and drove away the Xi family members. They said bitterly that even if they paid out all their property and disbanded the Zhao family’s business, they would rather destroy them all than sell them to the Xi family and let the Xi family die. Take it easy!

   Three hundred thousand taels? Thanks to them for opening their mouths!

   Even the big mansion carefully arranged by their Zhao family in the capital is more than 300,000 taels of silver.

  The Xi family left in anger and anger. They said that they must clean up the Zhao family. Don't say 300,000 taels, they won't stay with them! Their father and son are waiting to beg for food with their wives and children.

  The father and son of the Zhao family do not believe in this evil, and they are now all over the capital looking for big businessmen to take over all the properties of the Zhao family.

   As long as the price is right, even if the Zhao family suffers a little loss, they are happy.

  However, although this is a big piece of fat, with the Xi family watching intently, who would dare to take action?

   No matter how delicious the meat is, it must be eaten alive!

   The four of them thought they were also business people. When they mentioned the matter of the Zhao family, they all shook their heads and sighed, with a bit of sympathy between their words.
