MTL - Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm-Chapter 330 330 Henry Zhang

   Chapter 330 330 Henry Zhang

   King Anyang looked at Lin Xiaoyue with a smile, thinking that Lin Xiaoyue would definitely respond, but saw her complex expression.

   "This...because only the chain stores in Nan'an County are currently planned, there are only 28 franchise places for the time being."

   One shot is 10,000 taels, the prince deserves to be the prince.

   King Anyang and Liang Yu's expressions changed at the same time.

On the way   , Mr. Liang had already told them the situation.

   But they thought that there are ten counties in Nan'an County, and each county can open a lot of chain stores.

   They came to send money, but Lin Xiaoyue would refuse without reason.

   Unexpectedly, she actually refused.

   "Nan'an County is a big place. In addition to Nan'an County, other counties are also very prosperous. For the remaining 22 stores, the king can join and go to other counties." Anyang Wang said.

   Liang Yu also looked at Lin Xiaoyue nervously.

  Lin Xiaoyue was embarrassed.

"This……"

   "Why, Lin Dong's family didn't plan to open chain stores in other counties?" King Anyang's brows furrowed, and his tone increased.

   "Naturally not." Lin Xiaoyue hurriedly saluted the King of Anyang.

   "Just don't plan to recruit too many franchisees."

   "Minwomen are quite confident in 'getting up fast', and they are limited by the capital they have, so they release some franchise stores to accelerate brand building."

   "But when the brand effect comes out, we will open more franchise stores or—" Lin Xiaoyue gave Anyang King a careful look.

   "In other words, it is not worthwhile to continue to open franchise stores at low prices."

   "After all, the profits of directly-operated stores can be much higher than that of franchised stores. With sufficient capital, I will slowly open stores and expand, and I may make more money."

   King Anyang understood, and his face sank.

   So, it means you want to increase the price?

   "Cough, just open the dozens of franchise stores in Nan'an County, how can they support the Chiwu Army? At least two more counties must be opened!"

  Lin Xiaoyue just looked at King Anyang, when he heard King Anyang continue: "That's it. The remaining franchise stores in Nan'an County, Benwang wants. The other two counties, Benwang and Liang's firm are divided."

   Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue was about to speak, King Anyang said again: "I'll give you 20,000 taels first. For the rest, wait until the specific number of franchise stores is determined, and then make up."

  Lin Xiaoyue:——

   made an uncomfortable expression, and then bowed to King Anyang.

   "Yes." He looked like he was having a hard time accepting it.

   It can be seen that King Anyang is in a happy mood.

   Liang Yu on the side was also in a good mood at the moment.

   He didn't think that Lin Xiaoyue really made her feel so uncomfortable, but seeing her like this made her feel happy.

   Afterwards, Lin Xiaoyue signed contracts with King Anyang and Liang Yu respectively.

  The deed is signed, and things are almost done.

  Liang Yu only said that things would be done within three days, and sent the bank notes and land deeds, and left with shopkeeper Liang and King Anyang.

When    was leaving, King Anyang also asked two guards to follow Lin Xiaoyue to the kitchen and took a lot of braised pork, bacon and sausages.

   The couple stood on the side of the road to send off the carriage, looked at each other, and both laughed.

   "I've opened my eyes today, my wife is eloquent, and I admire her husband!" Li Xiao clasped his fists and said to Lin Xiaoyue.

  Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Li Xiao, "That's it!"

After    finished speaking, Aojiao turned her head and walked towards the courtyard gate.

  Li Xiao smiled and quickly followed.

   But he didn't know, at this time the smile on Lin Xiaoyue's face had disappeared, and she still sighed deeply in her heart.

   Is your eloquence great?

   Naturally powerful.

   succeeded in getting King Anyang to agree to give money to rescue the Chiwu Army, return living materials, nine villagers and 20,000 taels of military expenses.

   In addition, there was a joining fee of 20,000 taels of silver.

   These sums of money are worth more than two hundred thousand taels of silver. Even for Liang's firm, it is not a small number.

   But these are really just enough for them.

   She complained to King Anyang that she was under pressure to raise 6,000 people, but it was not fake.

  I asked Anyang King for so many things this time. If I want to ask him later, I am afraid it will be difficult.

   Next, they really can only rely on themselves.

   In addition, if the border is delayed for another day, the situation of the Chiwu Army will be a little more dangerous.

   When King Anyang has settled the matter, they have to rush to the border.

  Yes, she wants to go with Li Xiao.

   The next day.

   Early in the morning, Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao went to Qingshi Town.

   Entering the city from the West Gate, the carriage crossed two streets before reaching the destination.

  Li Xiao stretched out his hand and helped Lin Xiaoyue down from the carriage.

  Lin Xiaoyue saw that in front of him was a rather grand mansion with the word Liufu written on the plaque.

   She recognized the trace, Li Xiao's.

   I was feeling a little moved when three people came out of the door.

The middle-aged man headed by    dressed up as a housekeeper, and the other two were dressed as servants.

   "The old slave has seen Miss, Uncle!" The middle-aged man stepped forward and saluted Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao.

   Seeing Li Xiaochong nodding to himself, he looked at the middle-aged man.

   "Director Fang doesn't need to be polite, let's go in and talk." He said.

  Yes, Mr. Fang.

  Real identity, Chief of Chiwu Army. He has been in charge of the Nangong family property before.

   After getting in touch with Li Xiao, Director Fang went to Qingshi Town.

   After that, he stayed in this house in Qingshi Town and followed Li Xiao's arrangement.

   "Miss Xie! Miss, uncle, please!" Manager Fang made a "please" gesture.

   The two entered the Liu residence.

   After entering the door, Director Fang motioned for the two servants to stare at the door and followed Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue to the study.

   Lin Xiaoyue was observing the house after entering the door.

   found that the house is very big and there are many people.

  Yes, there are many people.

   And they are all chilled, it looks very difficult to mess with.

   Director Fang followed behind the two and deliberately observed Lin Xiaoyue's reaction.

   found that she did not show any fear, and she recognized the mistress a little more in her heart.

   The general king has died, and the young master is now their new master.

  The young master has become a relative, and the young master's wife is their new mistress.

   When he first arrived in Qingshi Town, he learned the identity of the mistress. He also held injustice for the master and his son, and felt that the mistress was not worthy of the master.

  But, after knowing what happened to the mistress, and seeing the mistress's mind and methods, he only felt that the master's vision was really good.

   These people have been looking forward to seeing the mistress for a long time, and today can be regarded as a hope for the mistress.

   When we arrived at the study, the door was still guarded.

   One of the handsome men was overjoyed when he saw Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue coming.

   "This subordinate has seen the master and the mistress!" Then he brought the two behind him forward, and knelt down on one knee to the couple.

  Lin Xiaoyue was surprised.

   Seeing Li Xiao beside him, he nodded to himself.

   "Get up." So he rushed to the man and waited for humanity.

   "Thank you, Mistress!" The man said immediately, getting up.

   "Mother, your subordinates and others, you can be considered to be looking forward to you!" The man looked at Lin Xiaoyue, and the joy in his eyes could not be hidden at all.

   But Li Xiao frowned.

   "Cough—"

   Following Li Xiao's light cough reminder, the man looked at Li Xiao, not only was he not afraid, but his expression turned into sorrow.

   "Cousin-in-law, look at my cousin, as soon as you come here, you slap me in the face." Then, she even said to Lin Xiaoyue.

  Lin Xiaoyue was surprised.

   looked at Li Xiao.

  Cousin-in-law?

  Li Xiao rolled his eyes at the man, and nodded to Lin Xiaoyue again.

   then strode towards the study.

   "Come in and talk." Shen said.

   The man smiled and quickly ran to Lin Xiaoyue's side.

   "Hehe, cousin, I'm Henry Zhang! Cousin's only cousin!" Chong Lin Xiaoyue introduced.

   "Oh, cousin, hello!" Lin Xiaoyue returned Henry Zhang with a smile.

  What happened? Li Xiao also has a cousin? I haven't heard him mention it before.

   "Hehe, cousin-in-law, you were born so beautiful! It's strange that cousin didn't bring you here, and he's hiding too tightly..." Henry Zhang said to Lin Xiaoyue in a pleasing manner.

   When he said the second half of the sentence, he glared at Li Xiao's back.

   Before, my aunt and cousin were worried that my cousin would not be able to find a daughter-in-law. Now, they have found someone who is so capable and so handsome...

  , I suddenly feel a little sour in my heart, what's going on?

   "Uh, my cousin praised me." Lin Xiaoyue replied slightly embarrassed.

   found that the more I looked at Henry Zhang, the more I thought he looked like an animal.

   "Nothing wrong! My cousin's appearance is not an exaggeration to say that she is one in a thousand. Does my cousin have any sisters in the family?" Having said this, Henry Zhang looked at Lin Xiaoyue with burning eyes.

   He has just arrived, and he has only heard that the cousin-in-law has an amazing talent in business and can do a good job. He has not found out about the situation of the cousin's family.

   When he saw his cousin today, he was truly astonished.

  If there are sisters in the cousin's family, can he propose marriage?

   He is eighteen and has been staying in the border barracks.

   All day long, you can't even see a mother.

   Now that you have finally come back, can't you hurry up and get married?

   Even a terrifying cousin like his cousin can marry a beautiful wife, there's no reason why he can't!

   "Shut up." Li Xiao in front of him couldn't take it any longer and said angrily.

   The momentum on his body stunned Henry Zhang for a moment.

   "Come here." Taking advantage of this moment, Li Xiaochong waved to Lin Xiaoyue.

   Lin Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried to Li Xiao's side.

  This cousin is too enthusiastic, she can't bear it.

   Henry Zhang came back to his senses and just wanted to express his dissatisfaction with Li Xiao.

   "Close the door." But Li Xiao said again in a commanding tone.

   "Yes." Then the conditioned reflex was normal, and he actually responded.

   Someone frowns, hating himself for making a habit.

   turned around and closed the door.

   When he closed the door and came back, Li Xiao had already sat down with Lin Xiaoyue.

   At this time, Li Xiao was full of aura, and Henry Zhang didn't dare to smile anymore.

   Henry Zhang and Director Fang glanced at each other.

   Then, the two stepped forward and gave Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue a salute.

   "This subordinate has seen the master, mistress!"

   "No gift." Li Xiao said.

   The two of them got up.

   "I came here to discuss with you about taking back the Chiwu Army." Li Xiao said directly.

   As soon as these words came out, Henry Zhang and Manager Fang were stunned.

   Especially Henry Zhang, there was a surprise in his eyes.

   "Really? Master made up your mind?!" He looked at Li Xiao.

   Since the accident at Nangong's house, the brothers have long wanted to evacuate the border.

   It’s just that due to various reasons, plus the master didn’t speak, the brothers didn’t dare to act rashly.

   He came back from the border this time, on behalf of the general in the army, and came back to inquire about the specific situation.

  But he was left here by Director Fang, and he didn't even see the master's face.

   That's why the master came with the mistress today, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit still, and he was going to go to the door to find the mistress.

  Mainly, brothers at the border, I really can’t take it anymore.

   There are not enough cotton coats to wear, and some brothers are so cold that they dare not go out of the tent.

   Short of food, the horses were almost slaughtered.

   If they drag it on, they will collapse by themselves before Emperor Yan can take action against them.

   Director Fang also looked at Li Xiao excitedly.

   "Well." Seeing Li Xiao replied.

   Then, he told the two of them the result of their negotiation with King Anyang.

  The two were surprised.

  This... can it still be like this?

   Sell yourself as a slave, and use the slave transportation route of Zhou Shiya to escape back?

  This… sounds incredible.

   But when you think about it, it turns out to be quite reliable.

  Zhou's Tooth Shop was the private property of Emperor Yan, and the inspections in various places were the most relaxed. Taking this route to escape, the probability of being discovered is the least.

   "Zhou Ji will arrive in Nan'an County in three days. At that time, the Prince of Anyang will find him as soon as possible."

   "We are just waiting for the news from the lord. As long as the news is confirmed, we can get up and go to the border." Li Xiao continued.

   Henry Zhang and Director Fang glanced at each other, "Yes!" Li Xiao clasped his fists and saluted excitedly.

   After a while, a look of worry appeared on Mr. Fang's face.

   "Brothers are back, resettlement..."

   A smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, and then he turned to look at Lin Xiaoyue.

   Lin Xiaoyue then looked at Director Fang and Henry Zhang, and told the Chiwu Army's resettlement plan.

   "Winter clothes and cotton wool for the winter, the lord has already arranged. Zhuangzi will build some houses and make a whole shop when the time comes, so that people can live there."

   "There are a lot of things going on in Zhuangzi, and people have to get busy when they arrive. Building houses, reclaiming wasteland, there are many things..."

   Director Fang smiled, "Don't be afraid of this, it's a good thing to do something."

  Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

   Next, he talked about his plans for Zhuangzi, the pepper production workshop and chain stores.

   Director Fang and Henry Zhang were amazed.

   Before, the two actually heard about Lin Xiaoyue from Li Xiao's mouth and inquired about some of Lin Xiaoyue's situation. I also admire Lin Xiaoyue in my heart.

  But now hearing Lin Xiaoyue's arrangement, I just feel that their mistress is just talented, she is a genius!

   "According to your husband, apart from the confiscated property of the Nangong family, you have already disposed of the rest." Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyue rushed to Fang's main channel.

   "Yes." Manager Fang replied, feeling a little heavy.

  The Nangong family has accumulated for generations, and the Chiwu Army's money bag has been wiped out in his hands.

   "In terms of manpower, I heard that there are not many losses?" Lin Xiaoyue asked.

   "Yes. Only 21 people have been damaged. At present, there are still 378 people under the old slave."

   Lin Xiaoyue's heart moved.

   "Would you like to follow my orders and help me manage the snack workshop?" he said.

   Director Fang was stunned for a moment, then looked happy.

   "The mistress has an order, the Chiwu army is up and down, there is no way you can't follow!" Immediately, she knelt down at Lin Xiaoyue on one knee.

   Director Fang's kneeling was really convincing.

   Before, he was worried about the evacuation of the Chiwu Army. After learning that the evacuation problem could be solved, he was worried about the placement of the Chiwu Army.
