Dressed as the villain's stepmother

Liu Zi originally wanted to make a joke to get rid of this matter, but he didn't expect Jiang Lianzhu to be more serious with him now, and even the questions he asked were so straightforward.

"I, how can I have any worries? I'm just hungry and want to eat something first to cushion my stomach."

He said immediately, turning his head to the side unnaturally.

Liu Qingqing looked at Liu Zi's current behavior and sneered: "Dad, Shopkeeper Jiang and I are not people who like to beat around the bush. If you really have something to say, you might as well tell us clearly that playing riddles here is boring. ”

Her father is pretty good in other aspects, but he doesn't like his colleagues to speak too clearly. He always likes to talk half and hide half.

She had already told him about this problem a long time ago, but Liu Zi never saw any chance of correcting it.

"Clear!"

Liu Zi slammed the tea cup he was holding on the table.

"You've been out here for a while, and you like to help outsiders talk so much. Do you still have your mother and me in your eyes?"

His voice grew louder unconsciously, and Liu Qingqing didn't dare to shout with him for a while.

Forget it, it’s better to endure it.

Liu Qingqing's arrogance immediately dropped. She turned her head and glanced at Jiang Lianzhu beside her. Seeing that she could still maintain a faint smile on her lips, she felt inexplicably that there was no big problem with this matter today.

"Boss Liu, if you have any concerns, you can tell me directly. We will do business in the capital in the future. I am not a person who likes to beat around the bush. If you can talk openly today, then the business will be better in the future. So we can help each other out.”

Jiang Lianzhu said to Liu Zi, holding the teapot and adding some water to his porcelain cup.

Liu Zi took a sip from the porcelain cup and rubbed the side of the cup, making it difficult to see what was going on in his mind.

After a long while, he bent his fingers towards Jiang Lianzhu: "Shopkeeper Jiang, if you really want to know, then I will make it clear to you today."

"It's not just that my family doesn't want to sell you medicinal materials. You can go to the herbal shops in the capital and ask around. None of them are willing to do this business with you. To put it bluntly, someone has made it clear to us behind our backs. If we weigh the stakes a bit, no one would dare to take this risk."

Liu Zi was also speaking from the bottom of his heart, and his words were sincere both inside and outside.

Given the relationship between Jiang Lianzhu and Liu Qingqing, he had no reason to block the deal, but he didn't want to offend the person behind him, so he could only refuse.

"Boss Liu, can you tell me who has arranged all these relationships in advance? I can't think of anyone who I have such a grudge against."

Jiang Lianzhu narrowed her eyes and continued to ask.

"Hey, it's Boss Wang from Huichun Hall. He has some connections with those who sell medicinal materials in the capital. A group of us also prefer to listen to him. After all, he bought most of the medicinal materials in our hands. .”

Liu Zi lowered his voice when he said this, for fear that the walls had ears and someone would hear everything he said.

"It turns out to be Wang Chungui. I'm wondering who has such leisurely intentions."

Jiang Lianzhu smiled, her eyes full of sarcasm.

She drank all the tea in the cup and quickly concealed the scowl on her face.

"Miss Jiang, did you provoke Boss Wang somewhere? I don't think he has such a big temper on weekdays. Why are you so angry now..."

Liu Zi then inquired again.

"It can't be considered as provoking him. There won't be any friction in normal business. If you trust me, Boss Liu, you can give me all the medicinal materials in your hand. I will cooperate with you for a long time without you. Then go somewhere else to sell medicinal materials.”

"what?"

When Liu Zi heard this, his expression immediately changed.

Could it be that what Jiang Lianzhu meant by this was that she wanted to cooperate with him for a long time and collect all the medicinal materials in her hand?

"It means that you can sell all the medicinal materials you grow to me in the future. I will never press the price. You can charge whatever price you want. Boss Liu, why don't you think about it carefully."

Jiang Lianzhu made her words more detailed.

"Instead of agreeing to do business with a villain like Wang Chungui, it would be better to do business with me. I am more sincere than him."

She continued as if striking while the iron was hot, it was difficult for Liu Zi not to be moved even if he wanted to.

He looked back at Liu Qingqing, who nodded with certainty.

"Dad, just trust our shopkeeper. She is definitely true to her word and will definitely do what she says. You don't have to worry when the time comes. No one will come to collect those medicinal materials!"

"Since Qingqing said so, I will promise Shopkeeper Jiang this time to sell you all the medicinal materials in my hand."

Liu Zi made a decision immediately.

He believed that Liu Qingqing's vision of people would never go wrong. She said that Jiang Lianzhu was someone she could work with, so why not take the first step?

"Okay, Boss Liu will count all the medicinal materials in his possession when he gets back, so that I can give you the money."

Seeing how happy he was, Jiang Lianzhu immediately laughed.

There were a lot of medicinal materials stored in Liu Zi's house, and in the end, the price went up to one hundred taels. Jiang Lianzhu happily handed over a banknote and found someone to transport all the medicinal materials back to the hospital.

Liu Zi pinched the large bank note in his hand, and for a moment he couldn't believe that the money was really in his hands.

It's really a bit confusing.

"Dad, I've told you a long time ago that our shopkeeper is not an ordinary person. If you can board such a big ship now, you can have fun secretly from now on."

Liu Qingqing said meaningfully, raising her eyebrows slightly at Liu Zi.

"Hey, I don't know if it's secret fun or not, but now it solves two of my worries at once."

Liu Zi pointed at Liu Qingqing clearly and grabbed her wrist without saying anything.

"Qingqing, you can't avoid your parents now, and you can't shirk the marriage anymore. Otherwise, I will go and have a good talk with Shopkeeper Jiang and let her evaluate it for me."

Liu Qingqing, who was still a little arrogant at first, immediately collapsed and glared at Liu Zi helplessly.

"Why do you like which pot you like so much but don't pick up which pot? Didn't you say that the marriage can be postponed for the time being!"

"Who said that?" Liu Zi turned his head away, "The Huo family and the Prime Minister all have a certain friendship, so please stop pushing back."
