"Mr. Chen, long time no see, why are you here today?" Lin Rujian noticed that Chen Wenqi immediately got up and walked over. He had known him for half a year, and he was a business partner.

"Long time no see, Ruyi. How's it going? I'm here today to ask you for three things. Are you free?" Chen Wenqi walked over quickly, with a happy expression on her face. It must be something good.

Lin Ruyi nodded and invited Chen Wenqi to sit in the room.

Chunlu made tea for the two of them, and the hot tea was smoking. Lin Ruyi warmed her hands with a cup, looked at Chen Wenqi and asked, "I don't know what the three things Mr. Chen said?"

Chen Wenqi took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The first thing is that I just negotiated a few big deals. After the year, I will increase the amount of soap and shampoo. From now on, I will pay 500 yuan a month. Add another five hundred bottles of shampoo."

Lin Ruyi nodded slightly, this is indeed good news.

Increasing the number means that they can also make more money, but I am afraid that the manpower is not enough.

But it doesn't mean that there is a war. It stands to reason that if there is a war, business should not be easy to do. Everyone will keep some money in their hands and will not be so extravagant.

How could Chen Wenqi still be able to negotiate a big deal? What was going on.

"Mr. Chen, I overheard people saying that our Da Zhou seems to be at war with other countries. Have you heard of it? Is this true?" Lin Ruyi lowered her voice and asked Chen Wenqi in a low voice.

Chen Wenqi glanced outside the door, then nodded slightly.

"This is also the second thing I want to tell you. I also heard that Da Zhou did start a war with Daliang, but the fight was not too strong for the time being. You'd better stock up some food at home in advance, so as not to raise the price of food in the future .” Chen Wenqi reminded.

Lin Ruyi nodded, then looked at Chen Wenqi curiously, and said, "Since there is a war, why is your business getting better and better? Shouldn't war be a way to make a lot of money from food? How can such things be sold? better?"

Chen Wenqi smiled, and then said: "Where there are people, there is business. We fought against Daliang in Dazhou, but there are no other countries. This time I did business with friends from the White Horse Kingdom I knew before. They are a small country. Every year, I rely on paying tribute to build good relations with neighboring countries. They don’t have fragrant pancakes over there. My friend saw the fragrant pancakes you made, and immediately said that he would take them home and sell them, and signed a contract with me.”

When Lin Ruyi heard that it was from another country, she could justify it. Anyway, if they could order more, they would also be able to make more money.

"Since Mr. Chen has channels, it's a good thing. We don't have any objections here. Then what's the third thing?" Lin Ruyi asked.

Chen Wenqi glanced outside the door and said in a low voice, "You still remember Zeng Hongjie?"

When Lin Ruyi heard this name suddenly, her hand holding the teacup trembled, and her heart also trembled.

Could it be that Chu Jieyi was discovered?

"Well, remember, what's the matter?" She tried her best to be calm, but her heart jumped into her throat.

"He disappeared. He has been missing for almost two months. The Zeng family has been looking for him, but they haven't found him yet." Chen Wenqi said softly.

Lin Ruyi didn't speak, but just nodded symbolically to show that she heard it.

Chen Wenqi went on to say: "It is reported that he came to our Baisha Town on the eve of his disappearance. Some people saw him and his servants in Baisha Town. But he disappeared suddenly. The Zeng family reported it to the government, and the people in the government are still investigating , I may come to your house to ask at that time, so be careful yourself."

When Lin Ruyi heard that she was coming to the house to ask questions, she became more and more nervous.

"What do you want me to ask? I haven't even met him before." Lin Ruyi held the teacup tightly and asked with a strange expression on her face.

"Because the Zeng family knew that he had cooperated with you in the past. He came to Baisha Town last time, and he also asked you to buy fragrant soap. I heard that they suddenly encountered thieves on the way and poured water on their fragrant soap. He was gone, and he was beaten up, his arm was broken, and he was trampled by a horse, and he was almost gone.

Since I have met you and disappeared in Baisha Town, I must ask you.Don't worry, the people in the government don't have evidence, and they won't do anything to you. "Chen Wenqi thought that Lin Ruyi was a little afraid of the government, so she said a few words to comfort her.

Lin Ruyi nodded and said, "I'm not afraid, and I haven't seen him before, so let the government check it out."

She now hopes that those four people pretending to be Four Ghosts will not be caught by the government, and they will definitely recruit them by then.

"Well, good. If you encounter trouble at that time, you can send someone to find me at home. We have some relationship with the county magistrate, so we may be able to help." Chen Wenqi said.

"Okay, thank you." Lin Ruyi said gratefully.

The two have worked together for so long, but she still recognizes Chen Wenqi's character.

"Why didn't I see brother Chu, did he go out to work again?" Chen Wenqi asked.

"He's gone away for something, and he won't be back until the next year." Lin Ruyi didn't want Chen Wenqi to know Chu Jieyi's identity, so he could only say something casually.

Chen Wenqi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, then if you need help with anything, just send someone to the Chen family to find me. Now until the fifteenth day of the new year, I will be at home."

"Okay." Lin Ruyi nodded.

"By the way, on New Year's Eve 26, I will host a dinner for my usual business friends. If you are free, go to your house for a casual meal." Chen Wenqi said.

Lin Ruyi hadn't thought about it for a few days. They were probably men. They didn't plan to stay in Baisha Town Mayor in the future. It was useless to know people. It wasn't suitable for her to go alone, so she simply refused.

"Mr. Chen is really sorry. I have something to do that day, so I won't go to dinner. If there is a chance in the future, we husband and wife will treat you to dinner again." She said with an apologetic expression.

Chen Wenqi thought about it for a while, she was a woman, and if a man wasn't at home, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to go.

"Okay, then when Brother Chu comes back, I'll treat you to dinner alone." Chen Wenqi said.

Lin Ruyi nodded.

"It's getting late then, so I won't bother you." Chen Wenqi stood up and said goodbye.

Lin Ruyi sent him out and waited for him to leave before turning back to the house.

It was really cold outside, and her hands and feet were numb from the cold just for a while.

When I got home, I saw that the three children were already picking beans for bean sprouts.

Lin Ruyi looked at it for a while, and felt a little sleepy. Anyway, there was nothing to do at home, and it was cold outside, so she simply went to lie down on the bed.

Unexpectedly, when I fell asleep, I had a dream.

She dreamed that a big black snake was lying in her house, and she couldn't get rid of it no matter what, she was so scared that she almost cried.

The big black snake didn't bite her, it just looked at her with green eyes, and curled up obediently by the bed.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and the black snake crawled onto her bed, waking her up with fright.

After opening her eyes, she subconsciously touched the bed and found that there was no foreign object, so she was a little relieved.

Just at this time, Chunlu knocked on the door.

"Ma'am, are you awake? Someone just sent a big box, and they didn't say what it was, just said you'll know it when you look at it." Chunlu said outside the door.
