When he knew that all the retail investors had gone to Wu Qingyuan to buy wood, the wood boss in the town felt like crying at that moment. Everyone is not a fool. At this time, how could they still not understand themselves? He was severely cheated.

This pit is really not small. According to the original plan, the wood sold to these retail investors this year accounted for one-third of the inventory in their hands. If these retail investors do not buy it, everyone will store it in their hands and wait until next year. You will lose a lot of money.

And because of the rumors of these retail investors, a group of timber merchants bought another batch of timber at a high price again. If this batch of timber was hoarded in their hands, it would not be as simple as not making money, but a direct loss!

Because the original price of wood will be restored next year, and there will be changes in the market. Who knows what the price of wood will be next year.

In this way, one-third of the original plus the later increase, the wood hoarded in everyone's hands has reached a considerable amount, and the loss of silver is naturally not a matter of a few taels of silver, let alone There is also a loss of 200 taels.

Don’t listen to the fact that it’s only one or two hundred taels. You must know that everyone earns only a few hundred taels of silver every year. For everyone, this is not a small amount!

Now, all the timber merchants were in a hurry, and immediately rushed to Qian's house to find a solution.

That's right, the fact that everyone cut off the Wu family's timber supply this time was a greeting from the Qian family.

In fact, although the Qian family is a big landlord and has some reputation in Shiqiao Town, they are not considered powerful figures covering the sky with one hand, at most they are considered wealthy outsiders.

This time, these timber merchants were willing to listen to the Qian family's words and cheat Wu Qingyuan together. It was entirely because the status of the Wu family and the Qian family were not equal, and the Qian family was their big customer, and the money seller was just a favor.

But who knew that Wu Qingyuan, an inconspicuous kid, would not play his cards according to common sense. He was not afraid of offending them at all, and instead got them into it.

It was just a matter of favors and favors, but now I have to pay for other people's grievances and pay a large sum of money. These timber merchants are of course unwilling. Since the matter was caused by the Qian family, the Qian family has to clean it up for them now. Mess!

"...Mr. Qian, this matter is your grievance. You can't drag us all into the water together. It's you who told us not to sell the wood to the Wu family. Now it's good, let's throw it all at our hands Well, if you don't give us an explanation for this matter, you can figure out a way for your carbon kiln business in the future, Mr. Qian."

It's about their own interests. At this time, everyone doesn't talk about friendship and face. No matter how big the Qian family's client is, the money they make is not as good as this year's loss. Money and favors, everyone is more concerned Tend to silver.

Naturally, the Qian family is unwilling to accept this mess, but the reality is that they are unwilling. They really offended these timber owners. From now on, the Qian family will never want to do charcoal business again. Such a big income business will be lost to the family. The tigress can't spare herself.

There was no way, facing the aggressiveness of the crowd, Master Qian could only grit his teeth and buy the wood hoarded in everyone's hands.

Now the timber merchants went home happily, while Master Qian was so angry that his face was blue, and he punched and kicked Wang Dafu who was doing him a bad job to vent his anger.

"Wang Dafu, you bastard, let's see what you are doing! 1000 taels! A whole 1000 taels! How can you tell my wife if you let me go home?! It's all your fault! You can find a way for me to get this 1000 taels of silver! "

"Master, I..."

Wang Dafu, who was beaten up, covered his face, was dumb, and couldn't tell if he was suffering from eating Coptis chinensis. He was the one who did the work, but the master was the one who made the decisions. It was his idea to cut off the Wu family's supply of goods. My own thinking, how can he be blamed for bad things now, 1000 taels, if he has 1000 taels, what kind of dog leg is he...

But no matter how bitter he was, Wang Dafu didn't dare to say it out. Master Qian was in a rage right now, and if he said anything else, he would add fuel to the fire, and his death would be even worse. He could only beg for mercy while bearing the anger of his master.

After Qian Yuanwai finished venting, and angrily confessed that he must find a way to get rid of the thorn in the Wu family's side, Wang Dafu was relieved and went home covered in bruises all over his body.

...........

"Master Qian is really serious. How can we blame us for this? It's obviously his own bad idea. Every time he has something to do, he will take you as the head of the family. He really thinks that we poor people are not human. The clay figurines are crushed and smashed. Make one?..."

In the Wang family, Wang Dafu's daughter-in-law Yuanshi knew what had happened when she saw her father-in-law came home with a bruised nose and swollen face. She skillfully boiled eggs and began to help her face, feeling distressed and complaining.

"Fatty Qian just doesn't treat us as human beings. I told the master at that time that it's fine to sell the Zhang family's fake wood. The man surnamed Wu is not easy to mess with, but the master just doesn't listen. Now it can be regarded as a hard stubble. Got it... I came to Shiqiao Town by myself at the beginning, but it took more than half a year to create the current family business. Even if I only opened a small shop, I went to see it on the opening day. Those goods are not simple, especially the glazed bottle. There are no connections, no means, no luck, where can you find the goods to sell? Such a person, no means, no courage, how dare he open a shop like this..."

Wang Dafu was also full of resentment.

Although he was scolded by Mr. Qian because of burning carbon last year and renting land this year, he was scolded by Mr. Qian for deducting the monthly money. In his heart, he hated Wu Qingyuan so much. Maybe people who treat people like dog legs are not stupid, and they don't have much brains for the master. How about an idea?

So in fact, his hatred turns to hatred. Whether Wu Qingyuan can provoke him is still in his mind. It is enough for this person to teach him a lesson and give him a warning. He must not provoke him, but whoever makes the master not listen to his advice must insist on it. Face it, what can he do now that it's like this.

"Then what should we do now? 1000 taels of silver is so much, what can we do..."

"Don't worry, the master said in other words, it will be fine when the anger subsides, but the master will be taught by the wife later, and our life may be difficult in the future."

Wang Dafu sighed.

His daughter-in-law paused, sighed inwardly, and then suggested worryingly, "...the head of the house, why don't we change jobs, you see, since you worked for Fatty Qian, there is nothing good about you."

"For an errand? For what? It's not that you don't know that your husband-in-law and I have nothing but this mouth. How can I take care of your mothers after leaving the Qian family? What will my son study for? What will the girl get married? Let's talk These years, you two are used to living a comfortable life, and if you move back to the village, will you be able to bear the pain of working in the fields..."

"This..." Yuanshi didn't speak anymore. Obviously, he couldn't bear to go back to the village after getting used to the good life in the town, but Xianggong was beaten and scolded as his wife all day long, and she felt distressed.

"Okay, isn't it just a beating, just apply some medicine later, let's save some money in two years, and I will stop doing it. Fatty Qian is not a master that can be followed for a long time. I understand better than you." Seeing his wife's expression, Wang Dafu comforted him.

"Well, I see... By the way, the head of the house, let me tell you something. Today, my cousin came to our house and brought a lot of things."

This is the reality, Yuanshi nodded in resignation, then stuffed the egg into her husband's hand, turned around and dragged out a pannier full of things from the corner, and started talking.

"Which cousin of yours? What are you sending things for?" Wang Dafu glanced at the pannier dragged by his wife, which was full of farm things like bacon and white rice.

"It's the one from Hecun, the 22-year-old girl who still stays at home, Wang Qiao, she got married a few days ago, you didn't go to the banquet, I went, her husband's family name is Zhao, he is a nice young man with a good looks I also have my own ideas. I used to work as a waiter in Fatty Qian’s grain store. I could have been the shopkeeper, but I heard that something went wrong. Cousin is so arrogant, why would she want to stay in the village all the time? Please see if you can find her husband another job in the town..."

"The surname is Zhao? Is it called Zhao Haisheng? From Liushu Village?" Wang Dafu frowned after hearing this.

"That's right, it's him!"

"No." Wang Dafu refused without hesitation.

"Why?" His daughter-in-law's face collapsed when she heard it. "I've seen Zhao Haisheng, the head of the family. He's not stupid, and he knows how to do things. If you arrange errands, it won't hold you back."

"I'm not worried that he will be slowed down. Do you know how Zhao Haisheng lost his job as a second child? The big girl in the old lady's room poked me. I have to give that girl some face, and I told you just now The Wu family, this kid also has a feud with the Wu family, so what if he has a good brain and can handle things, such a person who can cause trouble is not good, his parents can't do it, two stupid things, your aunt usually Don't you know how to count, how did you get married with this family?"

"Isn't that Qiaoqiao is old, and she has no choice if she doesn't marry again. You also know how fierce Qiaoqiao is. Who wants her if she doesn't marry the Zhao family? In fact, Zhao Haisheng is not bad, you What I said is not a problem, I have arranged for a good student to explain it to him so that he does not cause trouble, and you are the head of the family, you should do it, anyway, she is my cousin, how can I refuse when she begged in front of me.. ..."

Yuanshi tried to persuade.

Wang Dafu looked at her twice, then pondered, "Tell me, how much did you charge?"

"Five, five taels..." Yuanshi stared at her husband anxiously, explaining, "My son will be finishing school next month, and the family doesn't have enough money, and it's almost there."

"Shanhu is going to quit. I am short of someone under my command. Let him come to me in a few days..."

Wang Dafu nodded in silence for a while.
