Chapter 297 Return to Beijing
"Since a widow cannot show up, I am not a widow, so I can always go in."
Zhou Saochen came out from the side and stood beside Meng.
"Who are you?" The person who blocked the door was Li Baohuai's cousin. He looked up and down at the strange woman in front of him.
Zhou Saochen smiled slightly: "Cao Gang Zhou Saochen."
Qingshui Town is full of wine shops. If you want to sell the wine a little farther away, you must deal with the Cao Gang. For Qingshui Town, if you offend the Cao Gang, it will be difficult to move forward.
Uncle Li was startled and did not dare to question Zhou Saochen's identity at all, so he immediately went in to report.
Soon, Uncle Li came out again and respectfully led Zhou Saochen in, but he didn't even give Meng a corner of his eyes.
Zhou Saochen followed Uncle Li Tang in, but he didn't look at Meng.
Meng didn't know why Zhou Saochen came to Qingshui Town, but she guessed that eighteen or ninety-one was related to her daughter's marriage.
She couldn't go in, so she just waited outside.
After many places, she finally saw Zhou Saochen walking out of it, followed by five or six elders of the Li family.
Zhou Saochen walked up to Meng and said, "You have given birth to a capable daughter. She wants to do business with the court. She will stay in the capital more than Qingshui Town in the future. If you want her to have no worries, then go back and clean up and come to Beijing with me immediately."
Before Meng could speak, someone from the Li family who followed Zhou Saochen to come out, asked, "Does Baohuai only asks you to pick her mother up? Where are we? Can we go to Beijing with us?"
Zhou Saochen turned around and said coldly: "I came to pick up people on the order of my cousin. As for you, you must obey Miss Li's instructions. Whoever she asks to come to Beijing to help her, then whoever goes there has nothing to do with me."
The Li family dared not say much anymore and watched Meng get on the Cao Gang ship.
"Until the door is closed, no one is allowed to see outsiders again before the imperial decree arrives, and there are those from the Luo family members, who will be bombarded, and they will be bombarded!"
Two days later, Zhou Saochen brought Meng to the capital. As soon as he got off the boat, Meng saw Li Baohuai who came to pick her up. There were three strange women following Li Baohuai, including Li Qiniang and Yan Xuehuai, and the Meng family's aunt.
A day ago, the imperial court's prohibition was officially promulgated, and three wine brands were issued at the same time as the prohibition.
The Lijia Wine Firm in Qingshui Town was rewarded with a wine license; there was also a Shaoxing Lujia Wine Firm, which was inherited for three hundred years. The Lujia Yellow Wine and the Liquor and Vinegar Bureau have always had business dealings. The rice wine and Huadiao wine used in the palace all came from the Lu family, and the Lu family should have a wine license; and the third wine license was given to the Ouyang family, who came from the Chen family of the official winery.
The old master Ouyang of the Ouyang family was poor when he was young. He was taken in by the Chen family and adopted him as his adopted son. When he grew up, the Chen family helped him open a winery. The winery of the Ouyang family has always used the Chen family's signature.
Later, the Chen family cooperated with the government to become an official winery, among which the wine sent to the palace, the royal palace and the official family came from the Chen family winery, and the wine sent to the border came from the Ouyang winery.
Therefore, over the years, everyone has only known Chen Family Wine House, but not Ouyang Wine House.
The original Luo Family Wine House was temporarily cancelled, and Ouyang Wine House was only remembered. Unlike the other two wine brands, Ouyang Wine House is still mainly border gates. The border gate is cold, and the Great Wei army does not prohibit alcohol. However, if drinking is a mistake, the punishment will be extremely strict. The wine drunk by border soldiers and the people of the border gate used to be Ouyang Wine House, but it will still be there in the future.
Li Baohuai still has to stay in the capital for a while. She didn't want Meng to return to Qingshui Town, so she thought about buying a house in the capital. Li Qiniang suggested that Meng should stay in Qingping Lane first, wait for Li Baohuai's house to buy and repair it, and then let Meng move over.
Sijichun’s inn is not safe, and Li Baohuai also wants to change the place. Since Li Qiniang said that, she is no longer polite and asked Madam Qiao to send Meng to Qingping Lane.
Meng is only in her thirties, but she looks like a fifty-year-old. Although she is the wife of the Li family, she has worked hard for a long time. She has to help in the winery and take care of her disabled husband. Now that her daughter has grown up, she still has to worry about her daughter.
Meng lived in Qingping Lane. Zhou Saochen had already finished the work on the dock and returned to Qingping Lane. In addition, the Dong family siblings who lived here for eight days in ten days, Qingping Lane became even more lively.
After another ten days, Chai Yan returned to the capital.
As soon as he entered Beijing, he sent Agate to Qingping Lane to report to Yan Xuehuai. He didn't even change his clothes, and went to the palace to see the prince.
Yan Xuehuai once told him that it was necessary to report to the prince first for any matters in the court.
Chai Yan kept Yan Xuehuai's advice in mind, so the first thing he did when he returned to the capital was to meet the prince.
"Brother, all the bandits who killed Jia Shijun have been arrested and brought to justice. They collected money and bribed them was a manager of the Luo family. The person has been found and I took them back to the capital. According to the manager's instructions, the Luo family's business did not only have shares in the Fang family, but also in the Bao'an Palace. As the Luo Fang family retreated from marriage, there was nothing to do with the Fang family. However, Master Luo Si gave all the shares he had given to the Fang family before. Therefore, 40% of the Luo family's business is from the Bao'an Palace.
The fourth master Luo has only Luo Qing, the legitimate son. He has high hopes for Luo Qing and has made great calculations, but he has not calculated that Luo Qing actually got together with Jia Tingfang.
Although the Fang family was defeated, Master Luo Si never thought of resigning from the Fang family. After all, although the Fang family collapsed, the Bao'an Mansion behind the Fang family was the Bao'an Mansion.
But Luo Qing had his own ideas. He designed Fang Baozhu and asked Fang Baozhu to propose to withdraw from the marriage, and then took the opportunity to propose conditions to the Fang family and the Bao'an Prince's Mansion. However, he did not expect that in just one day, the story of him and Jia Tingfang was spread to the streets. In this way, the Luo family no longer had the qualification to propose conditions to the Bao'an Prince's Mansion, and could only give Fang's shares to the Bao'an Prince's Mansion with both hands.
For this reason, Master Luo Si hated Jia Tingfang very much. Jia Shijun left the capital, and the Luo family's manager hired bandits to follow him and killed all the male members of the Luo family.
The son of the Luo family was destroyed, and Master Luo Si did not allow the children and grandchildren of the Jia family to live."
Chai Yan finished the incident and asked again: "The bandits and the Luo family's managers all disguised themselves as if they were disguised as the capital. I did not disturb the yamen at all levels along the way, but I just didn't want to alarm the snake. Brother, Master Luo Si and Prince Bao'an Mansion, when will you do it?"
The prince smiled and patted Chai Yan on the shoulder: "This is done well. If the elder brother said he would like to reward you, he would definitely reward you. What do you want, just tell the elder brother?"
