Chapter 158 (1/2)

An Zaixin signaled Zhong Jiuge to go over and receive him, while she loitered around the room.

This shop was very big. In such a small place like Fang Bancheng, to be able to buy such a big shop, it was not because of Zhong Jiuge's ability, but rather the amount of start-up funds that An Zaihai had given him.

Actually, the decorations of the house itself were not bad, and it was only slightly altered, so the project wasn't very big.

Zhong Jiuge and the woman quickly got into a heated conversation. It seemed like they were closer than sisters, so An Zhe couldn't help but admire Zhong Jiuge's skill.

About ten minutes later, the woman left with a box of rouge that Zhong Jiuge had given her. She was satisfied.

Before he left, he gave Zhong Jiuge several hundred pounds of Qiubo with a smile in his eyes.

Zhong Jiuge brought An Ying into the room, sat down and took a deep breath, ””Dealing with these women is much more troublesome than dealing with those gangsters.””

””What do you think this man has to do with Li Changlu?””

Zhong Jiuge laughed, ””You won't be able to guess.””

””Li Changlu's woman?””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””Boss, it's meaningless if you act like this … That's right, she's Zhong Jiuge's woman.””

You said a eunuch was raising a woman outside.

I've only just learned about it, and I haven't had time to report it to you yet.

The woman had an engagement with Li Changlu, but it was dissolved when Li Changlu's family fell. ””

””Later on, Li Changlu was doted upon in the palace and hated you more and more. He thought about the time when you had reneged on your marriage, and I wouldn't let you get married.

He might as well throw away the money and keep this woman for himself.

””This woman is originally one who likes to be poor but loves to be rich, she is indeed beautiful …””

””Wipe the water out of your mouth.””

Zhong Jiuge smiled embarra.s.sedly, ””She's called Zhou Mengdie, and her family is considered a small rich family.””

Now she lived with a few servants in a house in the east of the city, bought by Li Changlu.

””Zhou Mengdie's father still doesn't know what's wrong with his daughter, so he can't be bothered.””

””Seems like this woman is interested in you.””

Zhong Jiuge shook her head, ””Boss, don't say it like that. Li Changlu is not that bad. This woman is rather interested in those who have some ability.””

An Zeng laughed out loud, ””You talk too much.””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””It's not that I don't want to be virtuous, but Li Changlu is using money to raise her, and she is using money to raise a pretty boy.””

An Zhan sighed, ””With Li Changlu's current strength, it's obvious that he's sincere towards her.””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””That's why I said that this woman is very important.””

If he captured this woman, Li Changlu might give in.

It shouldn't be hard for this woman to force Li Changlu to appear alone. ””

An Zaiyue glanced at Zhong Jiuge, ””No matter how much Li Changlu has done, no matter what this woman's character is, she can't be kidnapped to obtain the result.””

Zhong Jiuge asked, ””Why?””

””Li Changlu and this woman aren't good people.””

An Zhan shook his head, ””There are some bottom lines that you can't touch. Once you open this hole, you will become accustomed to doing such things in the future.””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””Then we can only find out more slowly.””

””Right … You said you want to build a cargo bank, how do you intend to operate it?””

An Xuan said, ””That's not difficult. I'll go back to the Military Department to talk about it.””

The army's fleet of carriages was not enough to transport goods to the Southern Wilderness, and the recruitment of civilian carriages was not enough as well.

I had Madman Qu to be the storekeeper of the warehouse, delivering goods for the Infantry Division to the southern border.

However, Madman Qu's background isn't good enough, this trading firm secretly wants you to manage it. ””

Zhong Jiuge nodded, ””No problem. As long as the things on the surface are sorted out, everything else can be discussed.””

””It is not difficult, and I trust you.””

””However, there is one thing I want to say … Every copper coin I sent you to the border to treat and settle refugees, you can't touch. If you touch one, I'll kill you. It's life saving money.””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””Boss, I also have a baseline.””

””Those rich ladies don't earn money for nothing, but I don't dare to covet this money. Even if I'm not afraid of death, I'm still afraid of having nightmares.””

An Zhan smiled, and patted Zhong Jiuge on the shoulder, ””Brother Ming, I'll leave this matter to you.””

Zhong Jiuge sent An Zaiyue off to fight for the shop. Looking at An Zaiyue's departing back, Zhong Jiuge felt that until now, he still didn't understand An Zaixin's intentions. He still didn't understand why he would always look into An Zaiyue's eyes, thinking that those eyes could see through everything.

Therefore, he was unable to understand himself. He had cultivated a thousand scams for so many years, why was he unable to tell a single lie in front of An Zhe.

While An Xuan and Zhong Jiuge were chatting, Little Seven packed up the things she needed. She left with a small kettle and a small backpack full of silver and snacks, then she left in high spirits. … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …

Auntie Ye stood at the door of the room and watched the child with eyes full of gratification.

””Be careful.””

she cried.

Xiao Qidao didn't turn around, but waved his hand. ””Don't worry, mother. Big brother An Chou said that I've grown up and that's why I want to become strong and mature.””

My brother Anjou said I had to get to know the city, and Anjou had so much to do that I had to do it on my own.

””I've been going out every day for this time. I'll be fine.””

He had been away for days to familiarize himself with Fang Bancheng, so Aunty Ye was not too worried.

When her son walked out the door, Auntie Ye turned around and went back to her room.
