call!!!

Just then, a cold wind blew and snowflakes began to fall from the sky

"Snowing."

Su Waner raised her hand to take a piece of snowflake, and the temperature in her palm melted the snowflake.

Now it is November, winter has arrived, and it is colder than in previous years.

The first snow this year also came earlier than in previous years.

"I don’t know how many people will freeze to death this winter."

Xiao Wuji sighed in his heart.

Every winter, people freeze to death and starve to death, especially this year.

This year, there is no harvest in the three states of northern Xinjiang, and after the refugee rebellion, it is even more difficult for the people to survive.

Although it is temporarily relieved by the court's disaster relief I came here, but now the cold winter has arrived.

Relief from the imperial court alone cannot save all the people.

It is foreseeable that this winter will be the end of countless people in northern Xinjiang

"Dog Emperor, you deserve to die."

Xiao Wuji pulled out the Dog Emperor and scolded him in his heart, but at the same time he also felt helpless.

There were too many refugees and corrupt officials in the world, and he alone could not save them.

In this difficult world, Xiao Wuji could only survive on his own. It's not easy anymore

"Forget it, these are not what I should be thinking about."

Xiao Wuji temporarily put his worries behind him and concentrated on being affectionate with his wife. It was a rare vacation and it was not a problem to stay in the house all day.

On this day, Xiao Wuji and Su Waner were wandering around Jinling City.

Su Waner walked to a place At the jewelry stall, he picked up a hairpin and asked.

Xiao Wuji smiled and said:"It looks good. My Wan'er looks good in anything she wears.""

"If you like it, buy it."

As he said this, Xiao Wuji handed the money to the vendor and bought the gold hairpin.

He inserted the gold hairpin into Su Waner's hair, and Su Waner blushed slightly:"Xiao Lang, this is on the street, and there are outsiders. here I am."

Su Waner has a gentle personality and can't stand Xiao Wuji teasing her on the street.

Xiao Wuji touched Su Waner's cheek and smiled:"I am your husband and you are my wife. It is only natural that I treat you well. It doesn't matter if someone sees me. Already?"

"Besides, even if it’s really teasing, am I guilty of teasing my wife?"

As he said that, he took Su Waner's hand and walked away in a big way.

No matter what Su Waner saw along the way, Xiao Wuji paid for it.

Several innate guards behind him were carrying large and small bags, and soon there was no place to put his hands. On the road , a young couple saw Xiao Wuji and Su Waner. The woman felt jealous and cursed at her husband:"Look at other people's husbands. The wife buys whatever she likes without saying a word.""

"Look at you again, I want to buy a box of rouge but you are reluctant"

"I will be unlucky for eight lifetimes by marrying you.

The husband looked unconvinced and said,"What's the point of buying jewelry and rouge?" Those are all lies, my love for you is real"

"Compared with my sincerity, jewelry, rouge, and makeup are just foreign objects, so what are they? The woman said reluctantly,"You will use these beautiful words to comfort me. Sincerely, where is your sincerity?" i can't see"

"Anyway, I just want to buy rouge, and I want it today"

"Besides, I’m dressed up beautifully, isn’t it just for you to see? The husband was short of money and looked confused:"Madam, it's not that I won't buy it for you, but our family is short of money.""

"Next time, next time, when I get my salary this month, I will definitely buy it for you."

With that said, the couple walked away.

Xiao Wuji and Su Waner listened to the conversation between the two and looked at each other with a smile.

Su Waner found it interesting, after all, it was the first time she had seen such an interesting thing.

But in Xiao's case Wuji looked at it, but found it boring.

He had seen this kind of thing too much in Blue Star in his previous life.

How should I put it?

For a man and a woman to come together, emotion is the foundation and the key.

But money is also the foundation.

There is no material thing. Love is like a castle in the air, elusive and out of reach.

Some people say that love is full of water.

But in Xiao Wuji's view, this sentence is pure nonsense.

However, Xiao Wuji does not deny that there is the purest love in the world.

But this kind of love is like a castle in the air. Love is very rare, not one in a million.

It is even less than the number of great masters.

Real love is just daily necessities.

If there is no material foundation, then no matter how sincere and pure love is, it will be wasted day after day. , has become no longer pure.

Xiao Wuji is very happy that he has the ability to make money.

Su Waner's family is also rich.

So they don't need to worry about money, they can abandon everything and concentrate on managing their relationship.

"Hey, Su's jewelry store?

Xiao Wuji looked at Su Waner and asked,"Is this driven by my father-in-law?""

Su Waner shook her head,"I'm not sure either."

"My father owned so many restaurants and shops that I can’t remember them all."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a strong sense of Versailles.

Su Waner herself may not have meant it, she was just telling the truth.

But in Xiao Wuji's view, it was Versailles.

These words and my father's money are too much, I count. Not sure what the difference is?

Xiao Wuji smiled and said:"Since you are here, let's go in and take a look."

With that said, Xiao Wuji led Su Waner into Su's jewelry store. When the shopkeeper saw Xiao Wuji and Su Waner, he immediately walked out of the counter and said respectfully:"I have seen my uncle, Miss."

Yes.

As soon as I said this, it proved that this store was indeed opened by Su Yue.

Su Waner asked doubtfully:"This store was opened by my father?

The shopkeeper smiled and said:"It is indeed a new one opened by the master. It has been open for less than a month.""

"My dear, just take a look, if you like it, just take it away."

While talking, the shopkeeper took Xiao Wuji and Su Waner around the store, and at the same time ordered the waiter to make tea.

You know, the uncle and young lady of the Su family are here today.

Su Waner will not talk about it, the only eldest lady of the Su family, In the future, he will be the only heir to the Su family's industry.

My uncle Xiao Wuji's background is even greater.

He is a royal guard with thousands of households and a popular figure in front of the emperor. He is extremely powerful.

The Su family's industry can expand two or three times in just a few months. It is the prestige of Xiao Wuji.

The store is large and luxuriously decorated.

It is said to be a jewelry store, but it sells many and miscellaneous things.

High-end jewelry, gold and silver jewelry, and gorgeous clothes embroidered with gold threads and inlaid with jewelry. robes, etc.

Anyway, the price of each piece is not low.

This store is specially designed to serve wealthy people, and ordinary civilians are destined not to be customers of this store.

"My cheap father-in-law's business ability is indeed extraordinary."(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Xiao Wuji has long known that his father-in-law is good at business.

After all, it is impossible to start from an ordinary restaurant and become a wealthy businessman in Jinling today without two brushes.

But seeing this Su's jewelry store with his own eyes today, Xiao Wuji admired Su Yue's business skills even more.

This Su's jewelry store is like a luxury store on Blue Star.

Obviously Su Yue already knows the essence of making money. Just make money from rich people. There is nothing to make from poor people's money.

And if you want to make money, make money from women. There is nothing to make from men's money.

As long as you grasp the two important points of rich people and women, Su Yue can lose money even if he wants to. Not too possible

"My dear, do you have anyone you like?"

The shopkeeper offered two cups of good tea and asked respectfully.

Xiao Wuji shook his head,"I'm not interested in these gold and silver jewelry. Where is Wan'er? Su Wan'er also shook her head,"

I don't like anything either."..."

Amelia Su is never short of jewelry.

The one she liked was bought for her by Xiao Wuji himself.

As long as Xiao Wuji bought it, even if it was just a wooden hairpin, it would be thousands of times better than these gold and silver jewelry.

"Let's go."

Su Wan'er looked at the jewelry store, but found nothing interesting, so she pulled Xiao Wuji to leave.

But at this moment, a group of fierce men suddenly broke in outside the store.

There were several ladies in the store, looking at this The group of big men immediately showed panic and left in a hurry

"Where is the shopkeeper? Where is the shopkeeper? Come out and see me."

A bald man stepped forward and shouted with an arrogant attitude.

His head was bald, without a single hair, but he had a tattoo.

The tattoo looked like a dragon but not a dragon, and looked like a python but not a python. All I can say is It's a lazy snake with four legs.

"Yes, yes, I'm here.

The shopkeeper stepped forward with a formal smile for entertaining guests and said with a smile:"What are your orders for this good man?" But what about the poor hospitality in the small shop that offended a good man?

The tattooed man glanced at the shopkeeper and said contemptuously:"Are you the shopkeeper of this shop?""

"How brave are you?

The shopkeeper didn't know why and asked with a dry smile:"What does a hero mean?" I'm sorry I don't understand. The tattooed man smiled coldly and said,"Don't you know that this street is the territory of my Yulong Gang?""

"If you want to open a shop or do business on this street, you must obtain the consent of our Yulong Gang."

"You opened a shop here quietly without even saying hello. This means you don't take our Yulong Gang seriously."

"this..."

The shopkeeper was speechless.

Xiao Wuji also understood that he was here to collect protection money.

Although Jinling City is the imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, under the emperor's feet, there are still many lawless gangs in the city.

They did not dare to bully court officials or powerful families, but they did dare to bully ordinary people and some ordinary businesses.

If you want to open a store, you must give gifts to these gangs and seek shelter.

Even greedy gangs will ask businesses to give them a share.

If you don't give money, they will come and cause trouble.

Blocking the door to drive away customers, pouring night fragrance on the store, and beating the clerk are all minor offenses.

In serious cases, they may even burn down your shop, and they may even dare to kill people.

In short, it is a different kind of extortion.

The yamen will take care of this kind of thing 3.5, but it can't do it because there are too many gangsters on the street.

I couldn't catch him even if I wanted to.

Moreover, these gangs will also respect the people in the government and let the officials be their backing.

The merchant went to report it to the police, but he couldn't catch a gangster for a month, so in the end he had no choice but to let it go.

But gang harassment of stores will not stop.

Over time, the store will lose money, not to mention making money.

The businessman had no choice but to pay the money honestly.

The shopkeeper looked at the tattooed man and asked,"I wonder how much does the good man want?"

The tattooed man nodded with satisfaction after hearing what the shopkeeper said,"You are quite sensible and know the rules."

After that, he glanced at the store. decoration, and said:"I won't bully you, just follow the old rules, and I will give you 30% of your monthly income.""

"What? Thirty percent?"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened.

Thirty percent of the profit is simply higher than the business tax collected by the court.

"how? Too much? The face of the tattooed man suddenly darkened,"

I tell you, if you want to do business on this street, you must abide by the rules of our Yulong Gang.""

"Taking you 30% is already giving you face. If you anger me, I will take you 50%."

"As long as you pay the money obediently, I will ensure that your business is prosperous and no one will come to trouble you again."

"Otherwise, hum"
