Baopu Pavilion and Shennong Pavilion, which had been closed for half a month, finally reopened.
All the goods in the store were half-priced, saying it was to celebrate the safe return of the city lord's wife's biological daughter, the young master of Qionghua Pavilion.
The monks were very happy and were busy purchasing elixirs to be used in practice.
For ordinary people, what is even more exciting is that Qingquan Winery has reopened its store, and it is also said that to celebrate the return of the Young Pavilion Master, the whole store is half price.
Baixing Store and Qianjia Store under Tang Yue's name are also generous, offering discounts of 30% to 50% off.
Now everyone in the city has entered into a shopping spree, and the news has spread outside the city, attracting many tourists from out of town.
The news that Tang Yue is competing for the position of Young City Lord also spread with the big discount.
The common people and ordinary cultivators all had a simple thought in their hearts:
This young lady is so generous. If she becomes the young city lord, maybe the things in these shops will be better. Lots of discounts.
Tang Wenhua and Tang Wan took a carriage and inspected Kunwu City together.
Chu Tianshu was practicing swordplay in the mansion and did not come out with them.
Looking at the frantic shopping of the city residents, his face became increasingly gloomy.
Tang Wan guessed his father's mood and sighed softly, "My sister has always been good at winning people's hearts. How happy the people are.
If these goods are sold at normal prices today, they will definitely be able to In exchange for a large amount of money.
If the money can be used in the mining factory and the silver market that were just opened a few days ago, my father will not need to borrow money from the bank. "
This time. The words touched Tang Wenhua's mind, "Prodigal!"
Before Shui Yingrou's accident, he wanted to open a silver mine near Kunwu City and make his own silver, so that he could have a lot of wealth in his hands. .
Who would have thought that he, a good wife, would refuse immediately. The silver mines in Kunwu City have too high impurities and the cost of purification is too high.
He also said that issuing too much money would affect prices in the city and harm the interests of the people.
He thinks these are all excuses. Shui Yingrou is just worried that she will no longer be controlled by her if she has money.
"Father, why don't we go find my sister and explain to her that you borrowed a large amount of money for Kunwu City. She wants to be the young city lord, and she will definitely find a way to solve Kunwu City's debts."
Who knows? Tang Wenhua rejected it flatly, "No need, I have made an appointment with Elder Liu to discuss this matter. You can go back first."
He opened the carriage door curtain and got out, leaving Tang Wan alone in the carriage gnashing his teeth.
When she grew up, she had little contact with Tang Yue, and she was in awe of Tang Wenhua, the city lord father.
Who would have thought that every time Tang Yue saw Tang Wenhua, she would use words to stimulate him and make him slam the door.
At the Tiantai Ceremony, he didn’t get anything good either.
I definitely don’t want to get into an argument with Tang Yue again, listening to her sarcastic remarks and those harsh and heartbreaking words.
"Miss, shall we go back home?" the coachman outside the curtain asked in a low voice.
Some monks who consider themselves noble will hire someone to drive them when they go out to show off.
"Go to Xichun Tower, I want to buy some snacks." Tang Wan said calmly.
However, after she left the restaurant, the guests inside were talking a lot about the second young lady who was vying for the throne of Shaocheng.
"Do you know? The second young lady has a deep love for her senior brother Chu Tianshu, so she deliberately snatches the position of Young City Lord. In fact, it is to ruin the wedding. She wants to be the bride."
A middle-aged man with a vulgar description and a fat belly talked excitedly about these words, and a circle of people gathered around him.
The old man holding the pipe said: "Let me just say that most women in the world wish to marry a good husband. Even those female nuns who come from rich families will seek a good marriage for themselves. How can there be such a thing? There are so many women who want to be the masters of the family.”
Hearing what he said, the woman who was originally interested in listening to the gossip became unhappy. "Bah, I am the one in charge of my tofu shop; the Shennong Pavilion is run by women; there are many female heads and pavilion masters in the world. Why can't we be the masters of the house?"
"That's a minority..." The old man was choked by this shrewd widow, and his expression was unbearable.
The wretched middle-aged man saw that the topic had strayed far away and quickly pulled him back.
“The second young lady really said that she wanted to be the city lord in order to ruin Brother Chu’s wedding. When the second young lady was young, she often followed her senior brother, and she was jealous and almost harmed the eldest lady. "
The waiter interrupted, "I have been working here for more than ten years, and I once saw the second lady spend a lot of money to celebrate Brother Chu's birthday, but when he didn't come that day, the second lady smashed the table. Excellent talent.”
As for whether what he said is true, no one has verified what happened more than ten years ago.
A few more people echoed, saying that they had seen it too.
Seeing that most of the people present believed his words, the middle-aged man said proudly: "The second young lady is also an idiot. I heard that she used various methods to improve her appearance in order to win over her senior brother. But she is still not as good as the eldest lady."
"In a fit of anger, she used a cruel method and unexpectedly disfigured herself."
A guest suddenly realized, "No wonder that day. The second lady kept her face covered when she went to look at the rooftop."
"Nonsense!" A woman came to this table, it was Huiyue who had returned from shopping.
"Brother Mu, these people are here to spread rumors and slander the Young Pavilion Master. They should be sent to Taiping Mansion to be tortured. Ask them who ordered them."
The middle-aged man's face As soon as he froze, he was caught just as he started spreading.
Mu Chongyun had no expression on his face as he took out the rope and tied up the most excited ones in an instant.
The lady who listened to the gossip turned pale and knelt on the ground with a plop.
Her voice trembled and she said: "Sir, the civilian woman did not slander the second young lady. I also denied what these people said."
Mu Chongyun snorted coldly. She didn't comply, but she sat here and listened for most of the day. , looking very interested.
But she was not sent to Taiping Mansion together.
On the way back, Huiyue and Mu Chongyun heard these remarks circulating in the streets and alleys again.
Among those people, Tang Yue's face is like an evil Shura ghost, which can stop children from crying at night.
How can a person with such an appearance be the young lord of Kunwu City?
Huiyue was very angry, and together with Mu Chongyun, wrote down the people who said these words, posted their portraits at the entrance of Qingquan Winery, and prohibited these people from entering to buy wine.
Nowadays, many people dare not spread gossip and cannot go to Qingquan Winery. Wouldn’t this cost their lives?
If the second lady is angry and bans those who spread rumors from entering Baixing Store and Qianjiafang, they will not be able to survive.
Huiyue did not dare to disturb Tang Yue who was practicing swordplay with these things, so she had to go to Qionghua Pavilion to see the returning Wei Hongyun and ask him to help curb the rumors.
After hearing this, Wei Hongyun snorted coldly, "Are you trying to smear Junior Sister Tang's reputation with such slanderous tactics?"
He said this, but in his heart he knew that such rumors were very lethal and would spread widely. The speed is fast, but it may still have an impact on Tang Yue.
He ordered the disciples in the cabinet to "speed up the printing of the summary and interpretation of the policy of the young cabinet master, and try to send it out today."
I hope the people of Kunwu City can see the significance of these policies Good thing.
After being busy for a while, his jade slip lit up. It was the head of Wuji Mountain who sent a message to him, saying that he had sent the unconscious Shui Yingrou into the cold pool, which could suppress the evil in him. toxicity.
This was the arrangement arranged by Elder Shui before he set off for the underworld. They couldn't contact Tang Yue at that time, so they asked the leader to send him the news.
Wei Hongyun brought some important official documents with him and planned to go to Dongfu to find Tang Yue and tell her about Shui Yingrou so that she could prepare for the competition with peace of mind. (End of this chapter)
